Membership Meeting, Splash Regatta 5/31/2014, 9 am

Hello SCRC!

This is a reminder that the Membership meeting and Splash Regatta will take place this Saturday, May 31, from 9am to noon at the boat site.  The event will kick off with a quick meeting for club members, featuring a safety presentation by the New Hope Eagle Fire Company.  We encourage all members to attend the safety presentation and hear this valuable information.

After the meeting, names will be drawn randomly  to compete in 500 meter sweep and sculling races, using 8s, quads, 4s and doubles.  We are also anticipating a few individual ‘challenge’ competitions, with bragging rights on the line.

If you would like to race in the SPLASH, please send an email to board member Nick Colvin [email protected]

Our Youth Booster Parents will be bringing food for everyone to enjoy at the event, and contributions to the Youth Program will be gratefully accepted for those inclined to do so.
