CRESCENT NEWS

April 25 - The club is now accepting applications for our summer Racing Program and Novice Program. Ray D'Amico will again head up the novice division, and Javier Murillo will coach the racers. Spaces in each division will be limited, so encourage any prospects to get their application submitted early.


April 14, 2008 - Club officers met at boathouse today.
Officers elected to serve for 2008 - Bill Shea, Pres; Joe Ferry, VP; Ray D'Amico Treasurer; Keith Pellicone, Sec'y; Maryellen Smith, Schuylkill Navy Delegate; Dave Ragan Captain; Jack Lees and Tom Bryan, Lts. ; Javier Murillo, Head Coach.

NOTE: There will be a meeting of all members of the club on the first Friday evening of each month. Meetings will begin at 7:30. Meeting of Officers will be held after Club meetings. Make time for yourself to come after work, get in a row. We'll order a pizza and have the club meeting - its important that we get everyone together to plan, make decisions, take assignments. Next meeting will be May 2, 2008. Following meeting will be June 6 - first Friday night of each month.

Crescent has Sunny Rodriguez cleaning the Boathouse each Wednesday. She has had a great impact on the quality of life in our lockerrooms. Having this service isn't an excuse to get sloppy. Keep the house in good order.

DUES - $450 a year. Due now. A notice will be sent out via email next week to remind you to pay dues. Don't wait for it. Send your dues in as soon as possible. Make check out to Crescent Boat Club, and send check to Joe Ferry at #5 Kelly Drive, Phiila 19130, or to his house at 441 Hawarden Road, Springfield, PA 19064.

DUES - we will hold dues for Summer Competitive and Novice Camp members to $525. Members should get the word out to any young persons that wants to be part of the best summer program on the River.

Tom Bryan has reviewed all our boats and has estimated that it will cost us between $10k and 15k to put all our equipment into perfect condition. Much of the work that needs to be done is fiberglass repair of small nicks and dings that happened when getting boats off racks. Try to be more careful, these kinds of harm are easy to avoid - practice good boat handling technique, and help one another when moving the boats into and out of water.

At meeting the officers reaffirmed the benefit to full members in good standing to use the social rooms of the boathouse, free of charge, for family parties and functions. Contact Joe Ferry if you'd like to make reservation. Check the online calendar to be sure that your date doesn't conflict with any existing rentals.


 

April 5, 2008 - Crescent Boat Club has just gotten word from the United States Immigration Office - the USCIS has granted Javier Murillo a special working visa to come to the United States and contribute his "unique' talents to coaching for Crescent Boat Club.

With this visa Javier will be able to work here in the states for the next three years, continuing to build the competitive racing program at Crescent, and to teach and train new rowers.
