This Friday (11/27) we will be meeting at the fridge at 9am for a relatively short (less than 90 minute) workout. Derek will be there and the fridge will be open, and we will do some circuits on the track as well. Everyone (girls and boys) are encouraged to come, and if you are doing another sport that doesn't practice Friday morning we hope to see you there as well. Have a happy thanksgiving, but don't let the holiday get you out of shape!

All,

George Kirschbaum '87 who lives on Washington Blvd. between George Mason and Swanson Middle is in need of some leaf raking. He would like 4 volunteers and will pay $25 per person to W-L Crew Boosters to go towards fundraising.

Please let me know asap. He would like to get this done this Saturday. It only requires raking and dragging leaves to the curb. His estimate it should only take about 1-1.5 hours.

Hello all-

Just wanted to let you know that JL Racing has their polypropylene tights on sale for $20 instead of the usual $40 until black friday. To novice rowers and parents especially, these are a really nice item to have for outdoor workouts during winter conditioning and especially for the cold days on the water in February and March. JL clothes are as good as it gets for rowing but they are expensive so this is definitely a good opportunity to get a pair if you need them.

More information on the presentation tomorrow at 10 O'clock:

--------------------------------------------------------------------


West Potomac, at 6500 Quander Road, Alexandria, VA 22307, is a
multi-building campus. We will be in the auditorium of Springbank, a
standalone building on the left as you face the school. It has its own
parking lot.  If you come off Route #1 onto Quander Rd, take the second
entrance to the school (right turn at the low brick school sign on the
corner, not at the pylon sign).  If you are coming off Beacon Hill/Belle
View Boulevard onto Quander Rd, take a left at the 1st entrance to the
school. The parking lot is the first one on your left, next to
Springbank.

If you do enter at the pylon sign, just drive all the way in until you
have to turn left ... you will then be facing the Springbank Building.
The parking lot is to the left.

Students entering college need 16 core high school courses:

4 years of English

3 years of mathematics (Algebra 1 or higher)

2 years of natural / physical science (one must be a lab science)

1 year of additional English, mathematics, or science

2 years of social studies

4 years of additional core courses (in any area listed above, a foreign language, or

non-doctrinal religion or philosophy)

More perspective on college athletics from a Kay Herring, mother of former rower Scott.....

-------- Original Message --------

Yes, this is important. There are NCAA enforced guidelines for college visits, summer jobs, and for other contacts which are seldom violated by colleges but can be by well-meaning alumni.

Parents of scholar-athletes need to know that their child is taking on a responsibility akin to a job that will take up to 36-hours per week, with some absences from class (which not all professors tolerate well), with some control by the athletic dept. over how many and which courses a student may take, and with real limitations on academic break activities (e.g. practice during winter and spring breaks preclude jobs, interviews, experiential travel). The 36 hours is NCAA’s limitation on the amount of time the students may be required to participate in practice and team meetings. I know it’s true for track and for crew. I assume it’s a blanket guideline.

I don’t think Scott has had this problem of absence from class for sanctioned travel, but his sister was prevented from graduating summa by a professor who dropped her course grade as a result of a class absence for a competition (the competition that won the conference tournament). We’ll see what happens when he goes to San Diego this spring.

On the up side—athletic departments monitor grades, require study halls, and if used properly provide good general conditioning, and arrange priority registration for classes.

My recommendation is that sophomore parents need this and junior parents must have it.

Hello All,

� A little update for all regarding Winter Conditioning.� Conditioning normally runs from 3:30 to 5:30 pm.� However when we are using the weight room the practice time adjusts and goes until 6pm.� This is to accommodate teams that are in season.� Unfortunately I can not change this as this came down from the strength coach we use for conditioning.� The boys and girls teams use the weight room ever other week on Monday's, Wednesday's and Friday's.� This week falls on the girls team.� Winter Conditioning is not mandatory but highly encouraged.� If your athletes needs to leave early or show late.� it is best to let their coach know of this.� This becomes good practice for the season in the Spring.� Thanks and sorry for the inconvenience.
