They should always have a water bottle with them, as well as sunscreen and good running shoes for land training (which may take place at the boathouse as well as at school). A change of clothing-particularly dry socks-is also useful (even on dry days, rowers can get splashed and soaked). For after-school practices, they should bring a healthy snack to eat before going out on the water--something that will sustain their energy level, such as fruit, bagels, sandwiches, granola bars, etc.
