We will be holding practice at the Brock Rowing Tank starting this Thursday February 5th at 3:30PM. We will be there every Thursday until April 2nd. Please confirm with your coaches each week to make sure that we will in fact be holding practice at Brock. Carpooling is very encouraged. Cost is $30 for the season and due now.

Our novices (novi.) will be competing at the Denis Morris Novice Sprints on Saturday February 7th. Cost is $15 and due now. If you can not make the competition please talk to you coach as soon as possible. Cheques can be made payable to Eden Secondary School. Please bring cheques to Mrs. Elliot. More information including Schedule will be posted here as I get it. (No later than Friday.)
We will once again be hosting the annual Rudernkrieg Indoor Rowing Competition. This is our biggest fundraiser and proceeds go towards buying major equipment such as boats and oars for the school. Last year we hosted 9 schools and over 300 athletes from across Niagara.
WE NEED YOUR HELP! We need athletes and parents to help with running this event. All athletes have mandatory volunteer time and are expected to be at the school any time from 6:30AM to 4:00PM. (schedules for racing and volunteering will be posted closer to event.) Parents who are able to work registration and consession stands or other various jobs can contact Janet Elliot at janet.elliot@dsbn.org.
We are looking forward to a great season. If things are unclear, please talk to your coach.
