    Board Business

    A huge THANK YOU! to Sarang Oka and Kevin Corcoran for their contributions to the club as they finished their Board terms in 2023.

    • We welcome Courtney Coffman, Joseph Weiss, and Layna Mosley as newly elected Trustees. The full list of our Board members and officers is available on the websitePlease do not hesitate to reach out and engage.
    • As we start our 2024 rowing season, our focus will be on the following
      • Continuing to foster a welcoming and inclusive Laker culture
      • Maintaining safety on and off the water.
      • Investing in equipment maintenance and upgrades
      • Helping newer members integrate into the club
      • Volunteering at various Princeton events and regattas
      • Enhancing the competitive rowing program 

    Please renew/get a USRowing membership ($25) as you renew your regular CLRA membership. This is a requirement as part of our liability coverage through USRowing. Please use this link membership.usrowing.org

    Captain's Report

    Some reminders:

    • We're training Tue, Wed, Fri 5:30AM and Sun 4pm this winter.  Signup for indoor training at clra.com/events.  If you miss sign-ups, add a $6 donation for each session at clra.com/donate
    • It's best to pay your Laker account monthly, maybe with your normal bill paying cycle.  Less transactions reduces our credit card charges.  A bank debit card also has lower fees.  I will send reminders when needed.
    • Our Princeton boathouse hosts have asked us not to park in the boathouse parking lot. There are exceptions including coaches and coxswains. Look here for suggested parking: clra.com/parking
    • 2023 LTR members need to renew as 2024 members to sign up for events starting 2/1/2024. Transitioning from LTR status is a manual process. Please reply to this email and I'll help get it done.  See clra.com/membership for membership levels and fees.

    Back on the water starts Sun 3/17/2024 including a back on the water party in the boathouse. It's coming up fast in 7 weeks! The Lakers will continue to train indoors too year around.

    LTR

    Our 2023 Learn to Row class is starting off the year with a strong turnout for erg practices! We encourage all new rowers interested in or curious about racing at CLRA to reach out to Race Captains Genevieve Looby, Elisabeth Hauptman, or Daren O'Sullivan. Racing isn’t just for expert rowers!

    LTR T-shirts and certificates are still available for anyone who would still like them. Contact Laura ONeill by email to arrange pick up.

    Thank you to all who participated in the survey (link below for those who have not yet completed it). Getting feedback is an important way to address what needs improvement and what is working well.

    LTR Survey

    Just a reminder for anyone interested in our mentor program to contact a member of the Learn to Row Committee, or if you’re planning to race, Genevieve Looby, who will also be working with us to match Mentors and Mentees.


    Volunteers

    Lakers we are looking to understand where you will be able volunteer and help out this year.  We are a community-driven organization, and your support helps us thrive. Please fill out this survey by February 29th to let us know where you'd like to contribute.

    The online team store for ordering CLRA training gear is now open and will only be open until midnight March 31 st . These are cold weather items from the company that makes our racing gear, and the prices listed require a minimum order for each type of item. A team store for racing uniforms will open later this spring and some of these items will not be in that.

    At the JL Team Store site, you can use your own credit card to order CLRA logo items as well as training gear. Everyone MUST get their order in by end of day on March 31 st . Orders are set to ship in bulk to the team coordinator who will arrange to get your order to you, but the site asks you to input a shipping address with your order. The shipping rate on each order is your portion of the bulk shipping rate based on the size of your order.

    If you miss the store closing date, you may order these items as an individual, directly from JL. For late orders, pricing and shipping will be different than a team purchase.

    There is information on the site to help you place your order, including a size guide for the garments JL Racing Sizing Guide and rolling your cursor over some items. Vest sizes can be ordered 1 or 2 inches shorter or longer, but they are shorter in front by design for rowing. If you have further questions about garment sizing, please contact customerservice@jlracing.com.
