LEARN TO ROW ~ FALL 2018
Whitman Crew is one of the most successful, competitive, co-ed sports at Whitman. With over 30 years of competition, we are looking for athletes of all backgrounds. If you are an incoming Freshman, or if you are a Whitman student who has never rowed before we are recruiting rowers to build on our growing success. No prior experience is necessary. Athletic experience is a plus.
Whitman Crew provides a six week complete novice training program projected to run from Sept 17 through October 26th (dates are subject to change.) The approximately 6 wk "Learn to Row" program concludes with a demonstration regatta. Practices run five days a week after school in the late afternoon, and transportation to and from Thompson Boat Center (TBC) is provided as part of your registration fee. All participants who register are required to have a current physical, complete the SR8 County Pre-Participation form, and take a swim test prior to starting the program. The short swim test is organized by the team in the fall after registering for Learn to Row. Want to learn more? Contact Whitman Crew Boosters Board President, Stephanie Proestel at proestel@msn.com.

NEW VARSITY FALL PROGRAM!
The Varsity Coaches and Whitman Crew Board are very pleased to announce the re-establishment of a Varsity Fall Rowing Program with Whitman Crew. More detailed information about the program fee and logistics will be coming out in the next few weeks, but the program is projected at this time to run from early September through November 12th.
Registration (as always) will require athletes to have an SR-8 County Pre-Participation health form less than 1 year old. We will email families separately as to the status of your medical form. If you have specific questions, please contact Whitman Crew Board President, StephanieProestel.
