Toga varsity girls visit the Edge Halfmoon

No school on MLK day afforded the varsity girls time for a little team bonding workout. This morning we had the privilege of a private event at the new TheEdgeHalfmoon indoor rock gym.  We have some pretty great climbers on our team!  And, even 50 feet up, the courage remained (or at least the trust in their teammates to belay properly).   Fun was had by all, there was even a little friendly competition between Alida and Raven. I think I knew it was time to go though when I was attempting a difficult (for me) bouldering move - after 4 unsuccessful attempts Caty H. said... "you just have to think "if I don't get it, I am going to fall and die""... I got it on the last attempt.  After 2 hours of climbing we invaded the Halfmoon Diner and feasted for another hour (good thing too... I am not sure I could hold onto the steering wheel after that climbing).

Spring 2012 Underway!

Just a week into training for the 2012 spring season, things are looking good.  Varsity practice is running smoothly, frosh and Mods are doing optional practices until they officially Start Feb 6th.  There are 30 adults registered, and the SAT classes are full.  The boathouse is a busy place this season.  Lets keep it that way!  If scheduling is our toughest task, that surely is a sign things are going well.

2012 Begins with NO SNOW!

Today marks the beginning of the 2012 season for SRA Juniors!  After a long 2 month break from rowing, it is great to finally have the juniors back in the boathouse.  I had fogotten the level of energy they bring to the building.  For those of you who have not already registered, please be sure to Register ASAP.  The early registration discount disappears on the 15th.  Also, do not forget the parent meeting for the 7th-9th graders!  Tomorrow (Wednesday) at 7:00 at the boathouse
