Practice Recap and The Week Ahead

We finished Week 1 on a chilly, damp Saturday. You’ll find some pictures and videos from practice taken by Heidi Gioseffi at Justice Rowing Photo/Video Highlights Gallery.

The Week Ahead

Tomorrow the forecast winds are ~20mph and if they remain that way we’ll likely switch to in indoor practice at the school. Rowers, watch for text/Twitter updates.
Tuesday looks better … temps in the 40s with light winds. Make sure you have water and extra clothes.
Wednesday … not a practice day, but the team picture will be taken in the Main Gym at 3:15. Given we don’t have new uniforms yet, the captains will discuss what to wear with the team tomorrow.
Thursday looks decent, with showers moving in on Friday and Saturday. Coaches have a mandatory Safety Meeting with the Sandy Run Park management at the Lorton Regional Park at 7:30 pm on Thursday.
We will plan to practice on Saturday morning (9 am-noon) for the remainder of the time at Lake Barcroft.

March 16: ALL HANDS

We now have three weeks left at Barcroft and will pack up and head back to Sandy Run on March 16th … all rowers should plan to be there.

March 23: Polar Bear Regatta

Our first competition will be the Polar Bear Regatta on March 23rd … this will be a small regatta and will not include novice events; however, novices should plan to attend to support their teammates and experience how a regatta is run.
