We are getting on the water!!
Parents,
As your rowers should know, we get to start water practice tomorrow! Yeah!!
Tuesday: All Girls plus Novice Boys are heading to the water. Students will meet the bus at the front of the school 3:20- the buses will leave at 3:30. The Varsity Boys will practice at MHS regular time.
Wednesday: Everyone down to the water.
Remember Your rower should come to practice prepared for hot or cold weather conditions, with tight-fitting, water resistant and/or "wicking" layers of clothing, a knit hat, sunglasses, reusable water bottle, etc.It can be 10 degrees colder on the water than on land. Recommend dark socks in the shells and running shoes may be required for land training.
SAFETY We wanted to share with you the McLean Crew Club Safety Manual. LINK This was developed in conjunction with guidance from US Rowing, FCPS and MHS and our coaches. In addition the athletes should have viewed the US Rowing Safety Video (here for your review). Safety on the water is of utmost concern to our coaches and board.
Spring season is finally here!
