COVID-19 UPDATE #2
A MESSAGE FROM OUR PRESIDENT REGARDING THE CURRENT COVID-19 SITUATION:
Hi all.
I hope everyone is healthy and safe.
I apologize for the delay of this post but it was very important we had all the facts and procedures in place before we made any decision on the Rec Rowing League this session.
We ( the Rec executive) have listened to Canada Rowing, Row Ontario and SCRC.
SCRC has just completed a very detailed procedure on how to return to Rowing.
Mark Welsh has created an SCRC site on " signup genius" for volunteers to register. You can sign up as "Admin" to help athletes sign in or out and ensure they have their safe Rowing kit or sign up to help out as a "Driver" to drive safety boats.
For the foreseeable future they will only allow SINGLES on water
Rick Crooker (president SCRC) has indicated that unless this virus ends soon " I don't anticipate we will be allowing anything other than singles for quite a while"
He also suggested that Rec should not plan on starting up before August.
By early July we should know if August is possible.
So based on this the Rec executive has decided not to have a first session.
Refunds will be returned in the same way they were paid. Tammy Jacobsen will begin the process of refunds immediately.
This is very disappointing but for the safety of all this is the right thing to do.
PLEASE follow us on Facebook as we will continue to keep you in the loop as things are constantly changing.
And let's hope we can have some sort of a second session.
Take care of yourself and your family.
I WILL " see ya up top" soon

Sign up individually or with a few friends. Our experienced coaches expect to be teaching novice rowers, so do not be intimidated.
