We miss morning practices and really miss post-practice coffee w/teammates. We want to connect with you today for 30-minutes of real talk about rowing life during a pandemic. FB & IG Live @ 9PST/12EST. No matter where you are or what time it is, grab a mug (or pint!) & join in.
Lots of details TBD, but expect a schedule of 5 coastal rowing development/ID camps March-June. These will be awesome opportunities for experienced coastal rowers AND flatwater rowers looking to get into coastal. https://t.co/uQIC8cPT4t
