Winter Training Forms Posted

Hello, OAR Junior Rowers

The Winter Training forms to register for the December-January training program are posted on the OAR website:
http://www.olympiaarearowing.org/SitePages_public/Rowing/Youth/junior.aspx

I have been sending out emails with the forms attached, too. And I've been phoning some of you to offer to answer any questions concerning Winter Training. I've been copying emails of rower parents also when I think that might help.

As you know, the Winter Training starts Monday Dec 1st. My wife (Maria) has offered to meet anyone from Olympia H.S. at the bus stop after school on the first day, to assist in using the #68 bus to take the short (6 minute) ride to the Briggs YMCA. We have some hope of carpooling a small group from Capitol H.S. as well, please contact me if you are interested.

If you are having trouble accessing the Winter Training forms, or you have questions about the Winter Training program, please phone me: 350-8115. Otherwise, please bring your forms and a check on Monday to the first practice.

I hope to see many of you at the Dec 1st startup at the Briggs Y on Monday.

****************
TO: OAR Youth Rowers : Winter Training starts next week!
WHERE: Briggs YMCA (see address, below)
WHEN: Meet at 3:30 on Monday Dec 1st. Ends at 5:15 pm
BRING: Registration forms (attached) and payment (bring a check)
WEAR: Training clothes (for indoor gym workout)
**********************
The practices will be at the Briggs YMCA (Yelm Highway and Henderson St in South Olympia).
The training will be coached, four days a week until the end of January.

There will be no practices during the two weeks surrounding Christmas.

The cost is $144 if you are already a member of the YMCA. Anyone who does not already have YMCA membership will need to pay an extra $23 for the two month temporary membership.

You can register on-site (at the Briggs YMCA) on Monday the 1st. But if you are in Olympia over the Thanksgiving Holiday, I would be very glad to come to your home or work and get your registration forms in advance. Please contact me directly if you want to ask any questions about the Winter Training, or arrange for me to come and pick up your registration packet and payment.
