Volunteering

Our volunteers are crucial for the success of the club and its’ members. We ask that each parent do their share. Consider doing a few small jobs or even a bigger job that lasts for the whole season.

During Winter Conditioning we run our biggest fundraiser of the year, Row for Community. This event takes place in the Bon-Ton court at Eastview Mall with each Crew Club member rowing for 1 hour on an erg. Rowers (and coxswains!) sign up for their 1-hour time slot and the event goes from morning through evening. Club members secure pledges and donations for their rowing and 10% of the money raised is donated to the Perinton Food Shelf. Volunteers are needed to work on this event.

Please contact Martha Kohn, our Volunteer Coordinator, to volunteer for a position (phone: 721-0504, email: mkohn@frontiernet.net )

Once we get closer to the Spring Competitive season, there will many more volunteer opportunities. These will include:

• Path Patrol - parents are needed each afternoon/evening at the boathouse while squads are out on the water
  
  
• Regatta Food Committee - a fun group who plans, shops, prepares and/or coordinates the food that is such an important and popular part of every regatta
  
  
• Towel Washers - one week opportunities to take home and wash towels used to wipe down shells after practice
  
  
• More -- Always more! Watch this page of the website for more opportunities to pitch in!
