Are you lost in the maze of rowing choices at LWRC?  Have you taken a LTR class and don’t know where you fit in now?  LWRC is a welcoming and vibrant community, but it can be intimidating first entering into the chaotic fray of new routines, checking out boats, or finding compatible rowing buddies.  If you find yourself in this place, the session October 2nd is for you!  It will be a chance to meet new and experienced rowers/club members, hear more about different coached sessions and group rowing opportunities, ask for a mentor, start a rowing group of your own, learn how to use your volunteer hours to build friendships and share your talents with the club, and share your own ideas for programs for new members.  Members and nonmembers are welcome.  Please bring your own hot drink of choice and join us!  Contact Sue Woehrlin:  swoehrlin@q.com or (206) 782-4376 for more information.
