Tag Day (Saturday May 11)

This is a very important event for the rowing club, and participation in mandatory. It looks as though shifts will be 2 hours long, and everyone will buddied up with another athlete.

There will be an information sheet going home, but a couple of important points: Rowing apparel is mandatory (Shirts, Jackets etc.); If you don't have any then please make arrangements to borrow something from a friend. Please no ripped jeans, we're representing our club and school. Money boxes will be collected regularly; the contact information for these people is listed above and will be provided to the athletes the day of. By no means should money go home with the athletes; if there is an issue please call you location's collector first or your rowing coach if that fails.
