6 at Pier 96. Come at 6:00PM to catch up with friends. Meeting called to order
at 6:30PM. ALL are welcome. The web site for the 2008 season is up. Please visit
the calendar at http://www.downtownboathouse.org/calendar.html.

*******************
The Boathouse is going to run a CPR/First Aid class for our volunteers. The
class will be held on Saturday, May 10 from 10AM to 4PM. The Boathouse will pay
for the class, but we encourage any volunteer who can afford it to become a
member of the Boathouse and make a $50 membership contribution to help us offset
the costs for the instructors, materials, and certification.

Membership is not required for the class, it's optional. See:
http://www.downtownboathouse.org/membership.html for a detailed description of
our membership policy.

The class will be held at:
Tony Dapolito Recreation Center
1 Clarkson Street
New York, NY 10014
Phone: (212) 242-5228
Cross Streets: Clarkson Street & 7th Avenue South
Directions: By subway: #1 to Houston Street; A, B, C, D, E, F, V trains to
W. 4th Street

We start right at 10AM, and could go as late as 4PM, but will probably finish
earlier. The Boathouse is providing pizza and soft drinks for lunch.

This class is for active volunteers. One of the requirements for our permit from
the Trust is that some of the volunteers running the Boathouse will have current
CPR and First Aid training. The class is equivalent to the American Red Cross
certification, and accepted at organizations
like the BCU, ACA, PADI, etc.

You may be able to get a reimbursement or stipend from your employer for taking
the class.

Please confirm your registration by emailing volunteer@....
Please write "CPR registration" in the subject line. It is first come first
served...

*******************

Our season will open in just under 2 weeks, On May 17th. We hope to see everyone
at one of our locations.

*******************
The water is warmer (mid 50's) but precautions should still be taken for cold
water. This would also be a good time to review the boathouse public boat use
policy. it can be downloaded at
http://downtownboathouse.org/downloads/pub_boat08.pdf. It is also posted in the
front cover of the log book kept at the desk at Pier 96.
