HAPPY NEW YEAR! We wish you the best in health and rowing for 2016!

Now that the new year is upon us, Swan Creek Rowing Club would like to notify you that the 2016 Membership Application and Waiver are available on our website.

We ask that the application, waiver and membership dues be submitted by March 1, 2016, or, prior to participation in any club sponsored events. Interest in rowing is definitely on the rise so it is very important that we receive your 2016 Membership Application as soon as possible, but no later than March 1, so we can better assess the opportunities for new club members.

As of January 1, 2016, the US Rowing Waiver is also available, which must be completed by each member as part of your membership application. Instructions for completing the US Rowing Waiver are on the SCRC Membership Application.

Beginning this year, US Rowing is adding an administrative fee of $5.75, for basic members when they join or renew, which will increase nominally over a three year period. There will be no change to Championship member dues.

You will find the Membership Application and Waiver under the Membership tab on our website – www.swancreekrowing.com.

Swan Creek is considering pursuing an opportunity to make NEW Concept2 ergs available to club members at a discounted price. The Concept2 erg is the industry standard and probably the best training tool beyond rowing in a boat. If there is enough interest, we would be able to offer an essentially new erg to club members at a cost no more than $790/unit. That’s a $210 savings off of buying a new erg directly form Concept 2. The Ergs offered would be used at the SCRC ErgFest and would be available after the event. The ergs would be the black Concept 2 Model D Ergs with the latest PM5 monitor.

Before committing to this, we would like to get an idea of interest from you over the next few days. If you are interested and would purchase an erg, please send a note to Alan Albanir at [email protected].

Thanks
Alan Albanir
Swan Creek Vice President.
