Rowers,
I understand that some of you have been a bit frustrated regarding the number of emails sent back and forth, but right now, our WIKI is under construction. It will not save any changes we make. Please be patient while we work out this problem. If you would like to row, email either Pam or me to set up a row, or post a message on our website.
Thanks,
Virginia
