Committee Planning:

Website updating:  Bill asked everyone to take a look and ask Scott to make any corrections or changes.

Clothing:  We discussed when we would open ordering windows for the fall.  We decided on one window for the returning rowers and one window for the new rowers.

Coaches Report:

  • Equipment: coach would like some large fours.  The cost is approximately $26,000 and will take 2-4 months for the boat to arrive.  Coach would also like 4 lock boxes and some new oars. We have a pontoon boat stored at I94 Marina.  We probably don’t need it and should consider selling it.  The marina would probably sell it for us.
  • Dave Fiske will no longer be coaching.  We need to try to find a replacement.

 

General Agenda Items:

 

  • The returning rower meeting will be at the end of August.
  • The new rower meeting will be in September sometime after the high school open house, which is September 14th.
  • The captains and rowers will be placing Gatsby posters around town to advertise the event.
  • Coach would like the kids to stay in cabins for the Leelanau Regatta.  Cheryl will be checking into lodging.
