Post Holiday Updates

Hi crews, I'll do my best to keep the blog up to date for quick references for all crews.

Brock Tank

  • We need $42 to be paid to the school from everyone before we can go. The cost increase is due to splitting the men's and women's program up to provide more tank time. 
  • We will be able to start once everyone has paid. 
  • LOCATION of BROCK ROWING TANK (Click for link.) 

Eden Spirit Wear

  • The site is now up at www.regattasport.com/iteams/login
  • Select Eden Rowing from drop down menu. 
  • Password is: ER16 
  • Go to 'Optional Gear' 
  • You can place orders from there. 
  • Hold off on racing gear until we have worked out what our on-water crews will be looking like. 
  • All spirit wear is optional. 
  • For those of you new to rowing, I would suggest waiting on the jacket. 
  • The sweatshirt and t-shirt are nice options for spirit wear days at school and our upcoming indoor rowing competitions. 

St. Francis Duel Meet

  • WEDNESDAY January 13th we will be having a friendly competition with the St. Francis crews. 
  • Women will compete at Eden, men will compete at St. Francis. 
  • Distance is TBD. 
  • It will be similar to the Holy Cross Duel Meet.

Rudernkrieg: Eden's Indoor Rowing Competition
  • Saturday February 13th, 7:30AM - 1:00PM (Aprox. time.) 
  • This is an important competition for us; It is a huge fundraiser for our program. 
  • All athletes are required to compete and volunteer. 

DM Novice Sprints

  • Saturday February 20th starting at 7:30AM
  • Entry is $15. 
  • Like most competitions, we won't know exact times until the week or even day before the competition, but last year all events were done by 1:00PM
  • This is a great opportunity for our novices to compete among other novices in the area.
