Monday, April 2- Friday, April 6 – Spring Break (aka Crew Spring Training)

Spring break is at a critical point in our spring racing season and practices (usually 2 a day) are essential for building strength, working on form and testing boat line ups. All athletes (Varsity and Novice) are required to attend practice during spring break. Because we double up practices during this time period, missing spring break means that an athlete will miss almost 25% of planned spring practices. A more detailed schedule will be forthcoming form the coaches closer to the beginning of April. There are Regattas scheduled at the beginning and end of Spring Break, March 31 at home and April 7 at St. Andrew's in Delaware.  If you have questions on this, please reach out to our liaisons, Deb Jospin (djospin [at] comcast [dot] net) (boys) or Ginny Beakes-Read (read [dot] ginny [at] gmail [dot] com) (girls).
