SCRC Offering a Fall Rowing Schedule
SCRC will be offering a Fall rowing schedule structured around the number of rowers interested.
Providing enough coaches or capable safety boat drivers can be arranged, Fall rowing for Masters and Seniors will begin on September 1st.
Rowing for Juniors will begin on September 8th and be held during the traditional afternoon 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm start.
The Fall season will run till October 31st. Rowing past that date will be reviewed and decided on by mid-October.
The fee for Fall rowing is $210.00 if you rowed during the summer, or $265 ($55 Rowing Canada and Row Ontario fees included) for those that didn’t. Fees to be paid before starting on the water.
Similar to our start-up in June, the list of those indicating being interested will need to be compared to equipment availability.
PLEASE ADVISE INTERIM CLUB CAPTAIN JIM MARINO (scrc-coach@hotmail.com) AS SOON AS YOU CAN, BUT NO LATER THAN FRIDAY, AUGUST 21ST IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO ROW IN THE FALL.
For non-Junior rowers, please indicate your shift preference, and if you require the use of a Club 1X. Note that the ability to offer multiple shifts of rowing is dependent upon securing coaches and competent safety boat drivers for all shifts offered.
The outline of how the Fall program is to be scheduled will be shared the week of August 24th. Rowers can then make their final decision.

High school Oarswomen and Oarsmen Graduating in 2020
For the past couple of years we have taken a picture of as many high school athletes and coaches as we could get seated and standing on rickety old picnic tables stacked dangerously on top of one another. With the hard work and skill of his many years taking the club photo Brian Thorne worked some magic and put together this photo for the seniors. Congratulations to all of our senior athletes graduating from secondary school!
Regatta & EventsWhat Next?...Last week Rowing Canada Aviron cancelled the National Championships and Head of the Charles announced that their regatta would be held virtually. These announcements pretty much closed the door on any remaining chances for a real regatta in 2020.
Niagara enters Stage 3 on July 24 which will open more places of business but still requires 2 metre physical distancing for people who are not from the same household. For rowing this means that we can continue to permit singles and doubles or pairs for same household rowers. We do not have approval to expand to fours, quads, or eights. Our coaches have done a spectacular job maintaining four shifts of rowers on weekdays and three per day on the weekend. Over 90 rowers have been able to get on the water and benefit from our coaching staff’s commitment. Several coaches have decided to take a well-earned break come August however our interim Club Captain, Jim Marino (scrc-coach@hotmail.com), is confident we can maintain all shifts. Vertical Divider
