Howdy,

Can I get a reply from those that are planning on attending Sunburn on
November 22 in Bainbridge?

Thanks,

Tom

Dear coaches,
Attached you will find the list of rules for the regatta.  There are a couple of
changes so please be sure to look them over.  For those teams interested in
practicing on the creek, the launching dock will close at 3pm.  For anyone
interested, at 5pm we will be taking coxes/coaches on a launch for a course
tour.  If interested please rsvp so that we know how many launches will be
needed.  Trucks must detach as soon as the trailer is parked.  Same goes for
singles that are being dropped off.  No cars/trucks/vans/buses will be allowed
in the parking lot of the center, only boats and trailers.  Parking is available
on the 72nd street lot, there will be a shuttle running from the lot to the
spectator site on race day.  Also, please remember that the boathouse will be
closed due to the construction.  Only crew members of a boat that is launching
will be allowed in the boathouse area.  You may have at the most 2 extras to
help with oars, etc...
If you have any questions on your way down, please call 305-582-5145

Have a safe ride,

Ura

This is a first!!!  While USRowing has conducted surveys of a sample of members
in the past, today we are asking ALL members to help us do a better job of
serving the rowing community.

We want to be responsive to your concerns about the cost and value of
membership.  But to do so we need information to gauge the impact of changes. An
on-line individual member survey was created by the Board and sponsorship
consultants to collect information on member services and to profile the rowing
community for potential sponsors. (NOTE:  A separate survey is being developed
for organizational members.)

This survey has three sections, i.e. rowing, other athletic activity and
socio-economic information.  Based on initial feedback from the first few survey
respondents, here are some things you should know about participation:

1. The survey averages 10 minutes.
2. Many of the questions require answers.  Some answers allow you to skip a
series of questions.  Others require that you provide an answer even if it is
only be N/A.  This is a nuance of the survey tool that could not be changed.
3. There is space at the end of the survey for your general comments.
4. The pet questions at the end of Section III are real.  They are asked because
two potential sponsors have identified pet ownership as a key to their product
sales and interest in sponsorship.  While they are not about rowing, they are
about getting money to support rowing.
5. Survey responses will be presented ONLY in the aggregate to US Rowing's
Board, staff and potential sponsors.  NO INDIVIDUAL INFORMATION WILL BE RELEASED
OR SOLD.

We have been through two tough fiscal years.  Sponsorship money has dwindled
which places a heavier burden on membership dollars and has resulted in cuts in
some areas.  Help us reverse this tide.

Information can help us both structure services that attract more members and
recruit more sponsors.  In turn, we will do a better job for you in both
services and costs.

USRowing Board of Directors

NOTE:  The link below will only accept a response from your e-mail.  If you know
someone else that would like to participate in the survey, there is an open link
posted on the USRowing web site.  The survey closes Friday, October 24th.

Howdy,

I just wanted to keep you informed about what has been going on with FSRA.

The Exec committee is currently reading through a document provided by
the folks at Stanton regarding our Constitution.  As soon as we are ready
we will send it out to the coaches for a vote. (Thanks to Steve and Tess
for many hours or work!)

Leon will be using a new points system (thanks to Dan Newman et. al.) at
Sunburn as a dry run to see how things go.  Dan spoke with many of you at
The Hooch.  Once Sunburn is over (Nov 22) we will submit it for a vote.
**(Sunburn race schedule and directions coming very soon to those attending.)

Thanks to Martyn and company for working with Jim Buckalew to get the
albano course in at Turkey Lake.  Jim told me that we have some
outstanding people here in Fla. and the course should shine for us at
Scholastics (after we race on it all Spring).

Please feel free to contact me for any other issues you need to discuss.

Sincerely,

Tom

Sorry, here is the correct link.

Greetings all,

On January 24-25 there will be USRowing Level 1 AND Level 2 coacing clinics.  There is a new twist added to the clinics this year.  USRowing, in an effort to increase clinic quality has authorized more guest speakers so the format has been changed a bit. 

The goal is to not only certify coaches but to increase continuing education for current certified coaches. 

We have increased the number of speakers AND subjects while condensing other subjects to make for more of a "convention" style schedule instead of everyone listening to one speaker the whole weekend.

USRowing has increased the clinic rates slightly along with the increase in the speakers.  People with current Level 2 or 3 certifications are welcome to attend the clinic at a greatly reduced amount (bring your own manuals) compared to those that are taking the tests. 

Go to the Stetson Crew web page for more information.  As I get the speakers lined up, a schedule will be posted. 

http://www.stetson.edu/athletics/crew/info/index.htm

ADDITIONAL SPEAKERS/SUBJECTS:
Equipment repair-Randy Rich-Jennings Racing Shells
Nutrition: Dr. Susan Hewlings BS, MS, PhD Florida State University
Injury Prevention: Glen Brickey-Director of Sports Medicine, Stetson University
Risk Management: Glen Brickey-Director of Sports Medicine, Stetson University
Weight Lifting/Conditioning: John McFarland- Strength and Conditioning Coach, Stetson University
Trailer Driving: Charles Huthmaker- Director of Rowing, Stetson University

Bill,

Charles Huthmaker at Stetson University is presenting USRowing Level I & II clinics on the weekend of January 24th.  I am checking with him to see if he is able to incorporate the repair clinic into his presentation.  If so, will that work for you?  Also, I forgot to ask if Resolute will be charging for this clinic?

Thanks,

Jamie

Please refer to Bill's (from Resolute) reply.  I believe we would have to put it up for a vote if we would like FSRA to foot the bill.  This would be my suggestion, but only for those coaches that are affiliated with member programs.

Dear Brice,

Thank you for helping me get the word out about our upcoming trip:

RESOLUTE'S FLORIDA TOUR 2004

Resolute Racing Shells will be in Florida again this winter scheduling boat
demos for January and February. At present we have arranged demos in the
following areas:
Tampa
Cocoa Beach
Miami
Wellington (singles)

Our representatives will be available to meet with any interested coaches
throughout the month. Our tentative schedule includes the following dates in
these areas:
Jan 2-5:
Tampa, Orlando, Gainesville, Tallahassee, Jacksonville, Daytona Beach

Jan 7-10:
Melbourne, Cocoa Beach, West Palm Beach, Wellington, Miami Beach

Jan 11-18:
Cocoa Beach, Tampa, Sarasota, Fort Myers, Miami

Jan 25 - Feb 1.
TBA

February
TBA

We can adjust our schedules to better suite your needs. We would be happy to
meet with individual coaches or groups of coaches, parents or board members to
explain what makes a Resolute different than all other boats on the market.

Please contact us if you are interested in learning more about Resolute. We are
also very interested to learn more about your programs. Resolute has spent the
last year finding new ways to help crews get the most return on their equipment
investment. Our flexible financing and lease/rent options make our boats
assessable to any size crew. The unequaled durability and stiffness of our hulls
make them boats you CAN'T AFFORD TO NOT OWN. Our current models include:

EIGHT PERSON HULLS:
Lightweight eight; 135-165 lbs. (avg. weight of crew)
Midweight eight; 165-195 lbs.
Heavyweight eight; 185-215 lbs.

FOUR PERSON HULLS:
Midweight four; 150-190 lbs.
(this design has been highly successful this year in all weight classes, from
high school girls to collegiate men)
Midweight quad; 150-190 lbs.

SINGLES:
Lightweight; 140-175 lbs.
Heavyweight; 185-215 lbs.

All of these boats, except for the quad, will be available for
demonstrations in Florida.

We will also be scheduling a repair/rigging workshop. Please contact Bill
SanMartin, our Service Manager, if you are interested in attending this event.

We all look forward to hearing from each of you. Thank you in advance for your
interest.

Sincerely,
Sue Hinckley
Sales Manager
