Thanks to all who have voluntered to bring things to the BBQ / Learn to Row Day on Sat September 25 which is a kickoff for Rowers, parents and Crew Alumni. We still need LOTS OF HELP.If you can reply all either way and let people know if you can come and what you can bring:
burgers, hot dogs, rolls, salads, desserts, drinks, paper goods.
Also, please consider making a donation to the perpetual boat fund in honor of Coach Jim Deitz, our recent Hall of Fame inductee!
Mens crew is a club sport, not Division I like womens' crew. therefore the men pay hundreds in dues, hotels, tranportation and uniforms.
Giving whatever you can to the boat fund is a great way to honor and thank Jim and UMass for all that our daughters have received
from being a part of UMass Rowing.
Thanks again for helping with the Kickoff BBQ in 2 weeks, Please Respond All.
Go UMASS!!
