Dear Justice Rowing Families,
(TL:DR Erg Sprints on Saturday at Gar-Field, everyone needs to fill out a waiver to compete, details for participants below)
The Prince William Rowing Club High School Erg Sprints are at Gar-Field HS at 14000 Smokestown Rd, Woodbridge, VA. You will enter through Door #7 (I have been told it is around the back left of the school by a former student).
The doors open at 8:00 AM. If you are in one of the first 5 events, please be there no later than 8:15 to make sure your registration is completed and warm up. The rest of you should be there by 8:30 (unless I get solid times for the events, but I haven’t yet).
There is an athlete’s waiting room on the 2nd floor next to the warm-up area. There is no seating, so I would recommend something to sit/rest on – the floor will suck out the heat of your body so don’t just sit on the floor.
Waivers: Every athlete, parent, and child, needs to sign a PWRC HS Erg Sprints waiver BEFORE they show up. Please complete the attached electronic waiver or print out the PDF and get back on Friday. The worst case scenario is that your parents are not there and the rower cannot sign a waiver for themselves without a parent’s signature. Any changes on the day of have to be completed by 8:30 am on Saturday. Last-minute changes make this process more difficult for PWRC, an organization that is bending over backward to help be a part of this event. I will be following up on this at practice as well.
When you arrive on Saturday, check-in at the registration table to confirm that you are there. If you are not checked in an hour before your event, you will be scratched from the event. While I will be there to assist with the whole process and to make sure no one is missed, it is your responsibility first.
If you have not turned in your waiver, arrive by 8:30 am to complete your registration.
