SWC Breakfast Club Fundraiser

Hello parents of morning rowers! Has your child taken advantage of the SWC Breakfast Club this year – a convenient and healthy snack after rowing and before classes? Dave Buzanko (rowing parent) is organizing a fundraiser for the Breakfast Club. Please see the notice below. We will also have some flyers at the tent this weekend.  I am personally all over that massage piece at the end!Iron Spin

There are 2 shirts (see photos) –  a short “t” and a long-sleeved in sizes S through to XL and both are being sold for $20. 

Funds raised by this effort will go to support the purchase of our new Bulldog Tent next year!

SNRR and the Weekend Schedule

Thanks to Zach for putting this information together for us!

SNRC High School Invitational – this weekend; it is a two day event. Schedule can be found here:  http://reports.regattamaster.com/Pages/Races.aspx?regattaID=1066  .  

Although it is rather convoluted, all the race times, progressions, and live results can be found there. 

Schedule for this weekend:

Thursday – Regular practice day

Friday – Regular practice day for MORNING SHIFT ONLY.  ANY EVENING ROWING MUST BE DONE IN WELLAND DURING THE POSTED PRACTICE TIMES.  Trailer is leaving St. Kitts for Welland midday.  This means that derigging must be completed Friday morning after you practice.  Please derig and load the boat that you will be racing if it is not already on the trailer. 

Saturday – Race day.  There are weigh-in’s. Please see attached Regatta Information Package for all info that you will need to know.  All athletes must bring school issued photo ID for both days.  

Sunday – Race day.  Again, see regatta package for info.  Again, PHOTO ID. Again, row good.

If you are the last crew to use your shell during the regatta you must derig it!

Monday – to be treated as a Sunday.  Please unload boats prior to practicing.  Then you are good to go out for a row during your regular weekend shift.  Please have all boats rerigged by Monday at NOON.  

Waivers for SNRR

Waivers for the SNRR regatta this weekend in Welland are available in Guidance. Since friday is a PD Day, they are due back to Ms Hunt by Thursday. Sorry for the short notice – just received them this morning. Please remind your child to collect one from Guidance and bring it home!

Mother’s Day Regatta Cancelled

Today’s regatta is cancelled due to high winds. The regatta organizers were able to get heats for the first 3 events off before safety concerns caused them to pull boats off the water. Equipment was breaking, boats were moving sideways, whitecaps – it was wild. Good call SCRC! But disappointing for all the athletes and coaches. Thank you to all who contributed to the Bulldog Tent this weekend and let’s look forward to a great regatta in Welland next weekend. Please check out the few photos from today in the “gallery”.

Mother’s Day Regatta Bulldog Tent Update

The Mother’s Day Regatta begins at 7:30 AM with the last final at 5:10 PM. It will be a long day for our athletes and they will be looking for snacks to stay fuelled-up on!

Sadly, it look like the day will be cool and wet.

 Please feel free to bring some other food of choice if the assigned items are not convenient to you.
