from Kendall

Hey Team,

So I have slacked in my duties as Student-Alumni liaison and didn't tell you about an even we're having next weekend. I know it's short notice (and promise it won't happen again) but we're having a parents/alumni day. It will begin at 11 and end at 2:30. As a team we'll be having a short (1 hr) water practice in the morning and then we'll have a bbq, alumni row, and learn-to-row session.

If you know any alumni interested in rowing please contact Peter Toy at ptoy@student.umass.edu

If your parents or siblings would like to learn to row HAVE THEM EMAIL ME! We are sending them out in the barge and it should be a great time. We need more people though so convince people to join!

Mrs. Kearney has tried to get some parent involvement in this via her email list but no parents have answered her! So convince your parents to come, we'll have a bbq with some alumni and it'll all be over relatively early in the day so you can still enjoy your weekend.

Thanks Ladies,
Kendall
