		JOIN CREW There is No Experience necessary for you to row with us! Rowers must be GVHS or GVMS Students in grades 8-12. There is NO TRANSPORTATION provided to practices in Delaware or to our regattas in Philly, NJ and DEL. There is a voluntary parent-led carpool for those that want to participate. We row out of Wilmington Youth Rowing Association, WYRA, the address is 500 E Front St., WILMINGTON, DEL 19801. Practices begin on February 19, 2020. PRACTICES are MONDAY-WEDNESDAY-FRIDAY 3:45-6:15pm and SATURDAY at WYRA from 10am to 1pm. PLEASE NOTE This is a competitive rowing team, we need your full commitment to all practices and regattas. We need the whole team at every practice to ensure we can get on the water ever day the weather conditions allow. We lowered the number of weekday practices when we moved to WYRA, due to the commute and respecting the rowers need to have time for school work. So more than ever, we need full commitment, one rower missing practice means an entire boat has to stay on-land. REGISTER NOW
