New Year, Same Great Club

1/25/2021

 
St. Catharines Rowing Club Monthly Newsletter - January 2021

​OPTIMISM...

According to the Oxford dictionary, optimism is “hopefulness and confidence about the future or the successful outcome of something”.

To begin, I’m back. The membership and then the Board have seen fit to return me as president of the club for 2021. A position I am proud to serve in for another year.
​
We have a few new directors for 2021. Please log into our website for the full list.

I am particularly pleased to have Lauren Kelly on the Board. As many of you know, Lauren has been handling our social media since last Spring and recently producing excellent articles on SCRC rowers. She has “produced” my updates since I started them and they have, in my opinion(!), become better as she has added structure, photos and recommendations. As a SCRC athlete still attending university (Notre Dame) she is a great example of a younger club member who is already giving back to the club and making it better.

We held our AGM on January 21st and while the online turnout was not as large as I would like to see I have decided to interpret that as the membership having confidence in the Board.

Reports from the executive will be available on our website including our 2020 financials.

Back to optimism… It is easy to get – or stay - depressed as we start 2021 with aggressive lockdown measures because of the surge of positive COVID tests. As if we needed reasons to stay in, this week’s weather calls for a “polar vortex”. But this is where the people who participate and compete in rowing stand out. As a ratio of training time to racing, I don’t know of another sport that spends so much of its time training.

This is especially true if you live in a climate like ours where you can’t be on the water for months at a time. I also have never met a competitive rower that has won every race they entered. What I do know is that if we don’t win, we go back out the next day determined to train harder, improve on technique and put the lost race (or season…) out of our head KNOWING we’ll win the next one.

Its that optimism, that confidence in our ability to succeed that keeps us training and training and training. 2021 is not starting out as we might have hoped. We do not yet know if there will be a spring, summer or fall competitive season.

However, we have some of the best coaches and athletes in the world and no pandemic will keep us down forever. As soon as we are allowed, shells will be on the water and calluses will start forming.

I believe that (like this horrible virus) optimism is catching. Our coaches know it and communicate it every workout.

For the Captain’s Dinner several years ago, I asked Regatta Sport to put BDRCW on the side of the club’s hat. I wanted our athletes to have people, specifically competitors, ask “What does that stand for?” to which they could respond “Best Damn Rowing Club in the World” – and then walk away... Pride in the club – sure. But also, confidence in knowing that if we meet them at the starting line, they are racing for second place.

As we “Forge Ahead” into 2021 please help keep the spirit of SCRC alive. Be optimistic. We WILL return to full rowing programs and we WILL see our athletes winning Henley Gold again soon…
 
Best in Sports,
 
Rick Crooker
President, St. Catharines Rowing Club         

Remembering Clint Page

1/11/2021

 

Clinton "Clint" George Page, 1924-2021

It is with great sadness we mark the passing of Clint Page, a massive booster of the sport of Rowing and a member of the St. Catharines Sports Hall of Fame.

Clint joined the St. Catharines Rowing Club in 1940. He rowed in 1942, then became a Regatta Official, serving in many capacities. Clint was a regatta official for 15 years before becoming the Chief Registrar for all regattas held on the Martindale Pond (1963-2000).

​Clint was a significant booster of the sport of Rowing. He will forever be remembered for his fund raising.
Clint was the driving force behind SCRC Bingo for years. There is recollection that he was involved in Bingo for the SCRC for approximately 10-15 years. He and his wife Jean raised more than 1 million dollars for the sport. In recognition of Clint's contribution to the sport of rowing at the St. Catharines Rowing Club, one of the SCRC boat purchases was named  “The Millionaire”, in his honor.

As well, He was a promoter of the Henley Island Helpers. In that capacity, he became the father of the now famous “Henley Island Hot Dog”, which, in the early years, he sold in front of the Grandstand. 

Clint is a member of the St. Catharines Sports Hall of Fame. He was inducted into the SCSHOF in 2003 as a Builder.
​
​He was an extremely proud member of the Canadian Merchant Marine, serving in World War 2. He was a regular at Remembrance Day ceremonies in Port Dalhousie Harbour, for the tossing of the Merchant Marine wreath, and the Downtown Cenotaph with his family, to lay a second wreath.

A Conversation with Matt Finley

St. Catharines Rowing Club Presents

A Conversation with Matt Finley

​(Henley Island) is home.  If I go to any other course, it’s just not St. Catharines.  I can still just think about calm days in St. Catharines, just chilling in my single ~Matt Finley
Picture
​Throughout my own rowing career, I have always conferred with my dad about racing and training.  Sharing exciting milestones, and disappointing pitfalls, my parents’ support has meant the world to me.  Matt Finley can certainly relate to this sentiment, and understands what it’s like to have a father encouraging him in his sport.  But for him, that support came from the coach boat itself.  Where my dad (a successful football and lacrosse coach, but certainly green in water sports) would, half jokingly, tell me to ‘just go faster’, Jim Finley was the one devising Matt’s race plans and breaking down his technique as his high school coach.  Somewhat of a dynasty has emerged from the Finley name on Henley Island, with both Jim’s years of service and Matt’s numerous accolades for St. Catharines, Brock University and Canada.  I spoke with him about what it meant to share these experiences with his father, was thoroughly entertained by the tales of his Stotesbury Cup race, and learned of his 100k erg with a benevolent intention.
Picture
LK: Your dad obviously played a huge role in your rowing career, how did that relationship evolve from novice rowing when you were 11 years old, to now?

MF: When I was younger, I wasn’t the fittest person.  I had played minor football, and I did the summer learn to row program.  I didn’t like it all, I much preferred football.  Rowing was just a summer activity.  My dad made me do it for one year, and then that summer season, I won a race or two, and in grade 10 I started to develop it a bit more.  He was my coach all through high school, and he really just built me into who I am today.
Picture
​In grade 12, I was in the single, and neither one of us knew anything about sculling, but somehow I made it onto the trailer for Stotesbury.  I finished 14th in the time trial, just barely making it to the semi’s.  At the semi’s, we had no real game plan, because sculling was so new to both of us.  So he told me to just give it my everything, and that was the first time I really used the rate to my advantage.  I finished second in my race and we were really excited!  That wasn’t exactly a fun experience, because I never settled from my starting rate, but I had to go out and do it again. I was pretty excited to have made 
it that far, because everyone around me had been sculling for years at that point.  I remember I got in the starting gates, on the Schuylkill river, where the first part of the race is on an angle, and once you get through the bridge, maybe 200m into the race, you really learn who’s in the lead at that point.  So I had the same strategy: I was at a 38, 40 rate, just ticking along, and I came through the bridge and I was in the lead!  So I had to keep building the lead.  By about 1000m in, my legs were totally shot.  My parents were in the grandstands, and my brother’s supposed to be recording, but he was too excited and forgot to actually start recording.  My dad’s not even looking at the course, he’s just beside himself.  And then he looks up and sees me in podium contention!

​
When I get to the 1000m I know I have to turn it up, but I can’t really, I’m just exhausted.  The lead starts to close, and first place blows past me, second place just beats me, I beat fourth, by like .15, but then right after I crossed the finish line, I flipped!  No one cared about the first or second, because they were all so concerned about me.

So that was really the start of my sculling career, and kind of how I built my focus on rate in the rowing world, which is kind of how I’ve excelled.  But my dad was definitely the building block of my rowing, and then I just had to tweak it on my own.  He’s always checking in on me.

LK: That Stotes competition must have been such a wild day for you, with the semis in the morning and that final in the afternoon.

MF: Oh, yea for sure, plus the drive home that night!  And my brother forgot to record the race, and that’s the one race I’d love to see again.  Did you ever race in Philly?

LK: I raced at Stotes twice in high school, but only once on the Schuylkill, and it totally messes with your head when you’re heading into the bridge.  I was closest to one of the bridge abutments, so I truly had no idea where I was at that point in the race.  But I suppose that what makes everyone just get out of the gates as quickly as they can, and race with blinders on for the first half.  How special was it to have your dad so closely tied to your rowing career, as opposed to the typical parent-athlete style of staying in the grandstands?

MF: My parents have been incredible.  Rowing, you obviously don’t get much funding, and when I was out west (with the national team), they were personally funding me.  When I went to U23’s in Italy the first time, they generously funded me to go to that.  And it was such an exciting time, it was a little last minute, and I was just so excited.  And at the grandstands in Italy, I was sitting there watching the practices go by, and I hear, “Finley!  Matt Finley!” and it’s my mom and dad.  They came!  They didn’t tell me!   They’ve been to Bulgaria, the Netherlands, Peru, everywhere to support me.

LK: Given your experiences both with SCRC and Brock University, what does Henley Island mean to you?

MF: Well, it’s home.  If I go to any other course, it’s just not St. Catharines.  I can still just think about calm days in St. Catharines, just chilling in my single.  That’s my home course, and I wish I could train there all year long, but unfortunately here, there’s wintertime and when the wind kicks up, you hate that course so much.  But when it’s nice weather, and the water’s calm, it’s the best place to be.

LK: It is too bad that we can’t row all year round, because the permanent dock is so tempting. Of course we can’t row right now with the lockdown, but in early December I was out on the water with a group and we ran onto some ice!  Luckily it was quite thin, so there wasn’t any damage, but that certainly is an advantage for our club to have the option to row all year round.

MF: There does get to a point when you’re rowing that it’s so cold and it’s not enjoyable.  When I was out west there were days when it didn’t feel helpful to be in the cold.  But what’s so nice about here is that there is a whole winter season to do cross training and it just gives you a breath.
When we won (the 2015 U23 Worlds), it honestly just felt like a job well done and I think the more you race, the more it’s kind of the same.  If I were to race for SCRC in the single, or for Canada in the single, it’s still the same race.  You have the same process and intention ~Matt Finley
Picture
LK: With three U23 World Championships experience, and the gold in the 2015 quad, you were certainly quite successful.  I saw on your bio for Brock University that you consider anyone to win a Worlds as your role model.  What did that mean to you to join those ranks?

MF: It was a huge accomplishment at the time. In 2014, we were inexperienced, and we came 4th in the semi-final, so winning the next year was really exciting.  But in regards to role models, it’s always cool to see Canada excel.  When we won, it honestly just felt like a job well done and I think the more you race, the more it’s kind of the same.  If I were to race for SCRC in the single, or for Canada in the single, it’s still the same race.  You have the same process and intention.  But, I don’t know, if what I’ve done inspires people to be better, to be active, then that’s great.

LK: Well speaking of inspiring people, could you talk about your recent 100k erg you completed for your friend, Nick?

MF: The idea for that kind of came from my new interest in running, that was really forced by the pandemic.  I had done a few marathons, a few half marathons, and then I had the crazy idea to do a 100k run, so I ran from the Service Road, all the way to Toronto.  My right knee was really acting up in the last 5k, so I had to walk a bit of the last 5k, but I did it.  So that was my big accomplishment for running, and then shortly after, my buddy unfortunately had a stroke.  We went to primary school together, and I wanted to do something to help him recover faster.  So when thinking of what to do a fundraiser for him.  I wasn’t going to run again, but I realized that the erg was the next goal.  So I got permission from his family to do a 100k erg, and I didn’t really train for the piece, the longest I had been on the erg for recently was about 30k, and before that all I had been doing was short pieces.  So we broadcasted the piece on Facebook and Instagram, my mom was my little nutritionist, she kept bringing me fruit.  We had a lot of people come over, cheering me on, spraying water on me!  But the goal was just to raise money for him, and he’s recovering extremely fast!  I always post updates about him, he took a swing at a golf club the other day, and he’s making a quicker recovery than most expected.  It was just something I could do to help a friend out.

LK: It’s such an incredible thing to do, especially for a friend.  We’ll attach the link to the GoFundMe to this article in the event that anyone wishes to donate.  Between that erg, and the 100k run you did earlier that month, what motivates you to complete these extreme athlete challenges, and how do they compare to a typical rowing event?  What did you do to occupy your mind in the middle of those long pieces?
​

100km Erg for Nick Spillman GoFundMe Page


MF: They were definitely some dark times in the middle of those pieces.  When I was doing the erg, we had some movies playing, but after a while, I lost interest in that and watched some Olympic races, and then in the final 10k, I had a bunch of buddies over and that got me through it.  But when I was 60k in, that was pretty dark.  Interestingly, that was the same spot that was the toughest in both the run and the erg.

Picture
LK: What did you prefer, the run or the erg?

MF: Mentally, the erg messed me up more.  Physically the run was more difficult, and probably because I didn’t really train for the run.  The longest I had run before that was 42k, which was triggered off of people telling me I couldn’t run 100k.  And I was just motivated to prove them wrong!  But the erg was mentally much tougher.  Although physically, I think I was just so used to the form, and rowing stroke, that it didn’t bother me as much, I’ve just up and down that slide so many times.  But I did, unexpectedly get these blood blisters under the nails but they didn’t really come in until after I finished the piece.  The hydration was also pretty tough to get through.

LK: Is there anything else, other than proving nay-sayers wrong, that motivates you to complete these ultra athletic events?

MF: It’s also to prove to myself that I can do it, but being a bit removed from the rowing world, I just want to keep doing things that excite me.  The first day of quarantine last year, I did my first marathon, when before that I had only ever done 14k at the most.  But after that, I just kept wanting to beat my times.  And just looking at people excelling online, that’s also very motivating.

LK: Do you see yourself going back on the water soon, once the lockdown is over?

MF:  Oh yea!  If there’s a racing season this summer, coming up, I’ll definitely be out there.  I haven’t done much on the erg recently in terms of shorter distances, lots of low rates.  I’ll do 500m at a 20, and see how that goes.  Or a 2k at a 20, and then a 2k at a 30 and compare them.  But I do feel like I’m in the best cardio and strength shape I’ve ever been at.  But I’m just excited to see what I can do.

LK: What lessons have you learned from rowing that you have carried into other areas of your life?

MF: Teamwork, for sure.  I try to show up on time the best I can; work ethic.  Sometimes I’ll be doing labour jobs, and when other people are tired, or want to stop, I just keep going. But definitely teamwork and believing in your team. The time management, I’m still working on, but work ethic, and believing in the people around you is something rowing instilled me.

A Conversation with Wendy Wiebe

A Conversation with Wendy Wiebe

(With rowing), you learn how to work with people, what to do when you get shot down. How to win and lose with grace. ~Wendy Wiebe
Although the collection of boats at the St. Catharines Rowing Club is quite extensive, rowers and coaches alike tend to gravitate towards certain shells. A lightweight single that is perhaps one of the most frequently employed boats by junior programs is the Wendy Wiebe.  Yet, with the many athletes who have raced that shell, it is likely to be a close match in finding which is more decorated, the shell or its namesake. Wendy Wiebe has been called one of the most accomplished rowers in Canadian history by Rowing Canada, and rightfully so.  Winning four gold medals at CSSRA in high school, Wiebe established herself early on, and raced at the World Championships from 1990-1996, winning five times, and an Olympic appearance among other international competitions.  For these victories and many others, Wendy Wiebe has been inducted into both the St. Catharines Sports Hall of Fame and the Canadian Rowing Hall of Fame.  I spoke with Wendy about her experiences rowing and training at St. Catharines, with the National Team, and what her legacy means to her and young athletes alike.

LK: It seems as though it took little time for your rowing career to be headed in the right direction, with your four gold medals at CSSRA.  While you were obviously successful early on, what were the biggest motivating factors in your decision to pursue international competition?

WW: It was just little steps that continued to open doors.  The biggest thing about rowing is that you can measure your success by how training is going; not always how racing is going because it depends on how everyone else is doing with that, but it just kind of happened by accident, at the beginning at least.  With history too, when I started rowing, Canada was not a rowing powerhouse. These things happened step by step over time. When I started rowing with the National Team, the goal was to make the final.  It didn’t even feel like it was in the realm of possibility to win when I started. But that all kind of happened over time.  So really, it was just a process that had to be taken step by step.  I trained mostly with boys: Dave Boyes, Peter Somerwil, and we all fed off each other.  There were plans at the end of my career, but it felt like it just kind of happened by chance.  You know what it’s like, you get to the end of the season and think you’re never doing it again and then you’re right back at it a month again.  I was in the right era too, because in 1984, the lightweight women had an exhibition race at the Worlds, and then it was ushered in more permanently after that.  I started sculling after I got married, and then the opportunity for the Olympics added another three years to the schedule.  So really, it was just a lot of luck and being surrounded by good people.

LK: It’s really interesting, because of everyone I have spoken with, no one said they were intent on going to the Olympics, but rather, that they took care of all the little things, and it fell into place, and your statement really just reaffirmed that sentiment! What was your experience with the St. Catharines Rowing Club?

WW: I had a great time.  The last five years of my competitive career I wasn’t training very much at St. Catharines, but it has, and will, always be home. I always say you can take the girl out of St. Catharines, but you can’t take the St. Catharines out of the girl; it’s home to me.  I just have amazing memories of rowing in the summer there, we just had so much fun.  It was what I wanted to do every summer.  SCRC holds a very special place in my heart.  I just started up there again after 10 or 15 years, and it doesn’t feel like I ever left. 

LK: It really is such a special place.  I always find that when I come home from university, I feel the emotional reconnection when I see my family, but when I drive down Main Street in Port Dalhousie, that’s when I feel like I’m geographically home.  How did rowing play a part in your post-secondary education and career? 

WW: I rowed at University of Western, in the heavyweight boat, but I was always a lightweight.  When I finished university, I kept rowing.  I was always a sweeper.  I came back to St. Catharines and got married the year I graduated.  But at the time, if you didn’t own a single, then you didn’t scull. I was having trouble finding people to row with, so in ‘87, I rowed in the lightweight four.  When I came back, I didn’t have anyone to row with, so I bought a single to keep training in, while I was working full time and married.  I had to borrow money from my dad to buy the single, I had never sculled before, and my husband pushed me off the dock and I was bawling!  I started training with the St. Catharines group and went from there.  After 3 years, in 1990, I started rowing in the double.  In 1992, I quit my full time job to row full time.  We won a bronze at ‘93 Worlds, and that was when I started to leave home more and train with the National Team

LK: To continue off of that, what was the process like for you with the National Team, given the numerous times you dominated the podium?

WW: I did start working full time from 87-92, and around that time, Mike Spracklen came in and reinvented rowing in Canada at the highest level.  I was only doing 2 sessions a day, by myself; I resisted doing 3 times a day because I was working, I was married, but I kept coming in third place.  At that time, there were rumblings that a lightweight double was going to happen for the Worlds, and so I thought that if I was going to do it, I had to fully pursue it and stop making excuses.  So I relocated, and started training with the National Team.  I finally gave in, and it was the right decision, it made all the difference. That summer was when we won our first world championship.  I had to put my career on hold, but that’s ok, it was the right thing to do for me.

The national team is really the same thing as club, at its barest of examinations.  You’re jumping through hoops and doing what they tell you to do.  One of the reasons Canada became so successful because of the incredibly competitive training environment. It would be everyone, all in singles, just going up and down the course everyday, really doing a “battle paddle”.  Twice a week, we would have rated pieces; I think on Wednesdays would be a 5k piece, and they would compare it with the Gold Medal Standard.  So we would know who the fastest one on the team was every week.  If you were having a bad day, someone who was having a good day would drag you along.  It was an awesome,  grueling atmosphere.

LK: I’m sure you learned so many lessons that are applicable to outside life in that environment.  

WW: Absolutely, you learn how to work with people, what to do when you get shot down.  How to win and lose with grace.  That’s what I find so upsetting about this era of COVID, how many people we have lost.  Not even at the national team, but the grade nine’s, the grade 12’s, they’ve lost such great times in their lives for competition.  It’s a very sad time for rowing.

LK: In the 1996 Olympic Games, you came down with a terrible flu virus the week before the race, and still managed to finish seventh.  What did that experience teach you?  What did you do to pull yourself through that race?

​WW: That was awful.  But I didn’t know if it was nerves, or what leading up to the event.  Truly a terrible experience, it felt like I was rowing through mud.  To be at your best and to lose is one thing, but to not be able to perform at your best is something else. But, through that, though, I learned that the same people that loved me when I was going fast still loved me when I wasn’t.  I had great teammates.  I got emails from people from all different times of my life demonstrating support.  It was also the end of my career.  So not only was I done rowing, but it wasn’t a great ending to that time in my life.  But I think that things happen for a reason; I learned that the people who I surrounded myself with demonstrated that they were in my corner no matter what.

LK: What do you make of your legacy as one of the most decorated rowers in Canadian history?
WW:​ Oh!  I don’t have any response to that.  I don’t know if kids really know about me anymore.  My son just started rowing, and he doesn’t really believe me that I rowed too.  We’ll be at the rowing club, and I’ll see people who I know, and he’ll say to me, “Mom, how do you know all these people?” and I’ll have to tell him how much time I spent here!  So I think I would be happy if any other young athletes would be motivated to row if they saw me row.  I would be happy if they kept rowing, because I encouraged them to row. Not just because of the wins, but because of the ups and downs, and the people I met along the way.  I only convinced one of my children to row and it was never about winning the races, it was about the people that you meet along the way.  Rowers are certainly a special breed of athletes and that’s what I would want for anyone; a group of people who will be with you through thick and thin, with you in the moment and still 30 years afterwards.  My rowing friends are my best friends in the world. ​
