Summer Crew started June 29.  We offer learn-to-row programs for everyone from middle schoolers to adults, plus intermediate sweep and sculling for high school rowers. There may still be some slots open, so check it out.  Coach Azim's there, with his camera.

Free sports physicals will be offered at TC.  Take the physical now and it will be good for all sports through next June.  Free athletic sports physicals will be administered in the main gtm at TC Williams on Wednesday, July 22 from 3:00 - 9:00 pm.  Download the VHSL Athletic Participation/Parental Consent/Physical Examination Form, fill out everything except part III (make sure a parent signs the permission section) and bring it with you when you come for the physical.

Alumni news from 2009 Dad Vail intercollegiate regatta in Philadelphia.  Jacksonville University’s men’s junior varsity 8, with Christopher Ottie (’08) rowing in the 4-seat, won silver in the grand final of the heavyweight JV championship.  Temple University won gold, and Grand Valley State took home bronze.  Cara Donley is rowing on the varsity second 8 at Indiana University, one of three freshmen to make the varsity squad.  Her boat had the fastest second 8 time at the SIRA Regatta held earlier this season at Oak Ridge, TN.   IU competes in the NCAA southeast regionals this weekend.

How are our alums doing in college?  Let us know.

New on the photo pages.  Our photographers bring you the best of the regattas.  And the other stuff too.  We're constantly adding links, so check the latest photo page frequently.  You can also find pictures from the recent christening of the Francis C. Hammond and the George Washington, and the long-lost photo galleries from the dedication of the Dee Campbell Rowing Center in 2006.

Commercial photos from 2009 championships are on line.  For the Ted Phoenix, VCRC, Stotesbury and SRAA Nationals, go to the Sport Graphics Web site, pick your race, enter school and event and see up-close photos from every race.  You can order copies in various formats.  And if you're feeling nostalgic, they have regatta photos from the last 20 years.  Photos from all three days of the CSSRA Canadian Nationals  are available from Digital Sports Photography.  Photos from the CSSRA medal dock are on line at goldmedalphotos.com. 

Videos!  If you've never seen the start of a race, check out this view of the boys second 8 from the stakeboat dock.  Plus the boys senior 8 at Stotes, the girls lightweights at 2008 Nationals, and more videos and links to TC Crew on YouTube.
