On Saturday September 11, Mark Kinsman has agreed to give an informal class on the basics of preparing for and entering a head race. This is for all members interested in competing AND those just wanting to learn enough to make watching or volunteering more interesting. He will cover training, logistics, how to register, master's categories and handicap, safety, and even what to do if you capsize - not that any of you will need to know that. The Chattanooga Head Race is an excellent place to try competition - home course advantage, no travel, row from boathouse, and small crowds - and you will need to be at the regatta at some point to fill your volunteer commitment anyway. (We would encourage you not to enter the Head of the Hooch as your first race.)
7:30 am at the dock to learn and row the course
9:30 am in the erg room to hear Mark Kinsman
