May Stroke Update
COME TRY ROWING DAY – SATURDAY, MAY 27
A few volunteers are still needed for Come Try Rowing Day on May 27. This is a great chance to showcase our wonderful sport of rowing to potential new members! I’ve told several people about it and I’m really looking forward to seeing their smiling faces as they get in a boat for the very firs time! It’s a lot of fun – Come Try Volunteering!

BOAT WIPE TOWELS NEED SOME REGULAR TLC!
NEEDED – volunteers to wash boat wipe towels! They get pretty grungy and a dirty towel just isn’t going to do its job properly. See Sarah if you’re able to help.

PFDs
A reminder that club-owned PFDs are for the use of LTR and Summer Camp participants only. Club members must provide their own. Rumour has it that MEC had a sale on PFDs – not sure if it’s still happening or not.
ATHLETE ASSISTANCE
Really want to row this year but just can’t swing it financially? The ERC has an Athlete Support Fund in place. If you would like to apply for assistance, please email Cath (membership@edmontonrowing.ca) or Carolyn (communications@edmontonrowing.ca) with information about your situation. All communication will be kept in confidence. Open to all members and anyone wishing to become a member or take part in an ERC program.
BINGOS
Please sign up as soon as you can!
All members should be aware of their number of bingo commitments for the year; it’s either two or three for most of us. If you have any doubt, you can contact the bingo coordinator (bingos@edmontonrowing.ca) any time.
