PRESEASON INFORMATION for 2016 SEASON:
Letter Home to Parents
Start: by noon on March 23
End: by dinner time on March 25
Philosophy of preseason?
Get fit!
Have fun!
Learn about rowing!
Maybe - - just MAYBE - - we can get on our lake!
Who is attending preseason?
DAY STUDENTS:
Emily Buell
Abi Trivella
Kylie Blake
Kailey Castle
Madison Dean
Julie Sullivan
BOARDING STUDENTS:
Abby McThomas
Amanda Lim
Abby Conway
Why the awkward timing of preseason?
Easter falls on Sunday March 27. The school has asked that we not require school commitments over the Easter holiday.
Where am I required to stay?
If day students attend preseason, day students are obviously allowed to stay at home. If boarding students attend preseason, boarding students must stay in a girls bricks dorm room (with consent of the current resident). You must leave campus after preseason and then return before classes resume on March 28.
Will I be penalized for not attending preseason?
Not at all. It is a great opportunity for team bonding, learning how to row, and gaining fitness and strength but it doesn't count against you when it comes to joining the team.
Cost of preseason?
$25
