The City Sprints Draw and competitor information is now attached and will be on the website soon. I think we have managed to coordinate all of the clashes with boats and rowers, but if there is anything that looks like it will create a problem, please let me know by 8pm this evening. If there are categories with heats, SFs etc and the potential clash is in the final, we can address this on the day when we know the results. Good luck, and lets hope for good weather!

Please note that Weil's disease can be fatal (e.g. Olympian Andy Holmes) and that you should treat this incidence on the Cam seriously. Water bottles should not get in contact with Cam water (e.g. wrapped in a polythene bag before being carried in the boat) and disinfectant/soap should be used to rub into your hands before leaving your boathouse.

Spring regatta close on Friday 15th May, and the event itself takes place on Sunday 24 May. Please use the web form at this address to enter your crews. http://bit.ly/1RaOV9U Payments can be made by cheques made payable to ?Cambridge 99 RC? or by bank transfer to sort code 20-17-35 account number 10228613. Further details are below from my original email. Any queries, drop me a line. Thanks Ian. -- Sunday 24 May sees our annual 'Cambridge Nines' Spring Regatta. This 1000m side-by-side race up the Long Reach is an enjoyable afternoon of racing in 8s , and the perfect preparation for May bumps. Come and practise those racing starts and size up the opposition in your division. The regatta is a plate competition, meaning everyone will get at least two races. We'll run divisions back-to-back, so racing should be complete in about 2 hours.* Pots will be awarded to the winning crews at the Cambridge '99 RC boathouse later in the afternoon, and the club fielding the most winning crews will be awarded bonus prize of a slab of beer. Last year, as an experiment, we changed the way we organised your entries into races to make the event smoother and minimise delays. This worked well so we'd like to keep the same format in 2015. ? We will rank crews in order of their standing at the end of the last May Bumps and pick out groups of 8 crews to form divisions. ? This will mean you'll be racing crews that are likely in the same Mays division as you? ? ?but there is a chance you could be racing a crew in a division higher or lower at some point. We'll also take entries from town CRA clubs and Graduate and Alumni crews. Please submit your entries to regatta at nines.rowing.org.uk by Fri 15 May 2014. Payment of ?48 per crew can be made by cheque (payable to 'Cambridge 99 RC Ltd' which can be dropped off at the boathouse any time before race day) We look forward to seeing you at the regatta on 24 May. - The Cambridge '99 Rowing Club * Last-minute scratchings or odd numbers of entries in a division may require a crew to be given a bye through to the next round. This may reduce the number of races, or could necessitate a wait while other crews race. -- Ian Farrell Cambridge '99 RC ian at ianfarrell.org | 07803 084698 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Best, Wilf. --- I apologise for the lengthy email but I?d like to run the following exciting idea past you and ask for your input and, hopefully, involvement. Open Cambridge is an annual event in September for the national heritage open days scheme to unlock secrets and doors of beautiful and intriguing places. It is organised by the team that runs the Science Festival and Festival of Ideas. As a significant part of the Cambridge landscape, it would be great to feature the river and some boathouses within the programme this year, involving university, Colleges and CRA clubs. This has been a big year for rowing, with the Boat Races, and clubs could help raise their profiles and various river-community issues to a curious general public. *The plan:* The proposal is to keep things small and manageable and participate in one day: Saturday 12 September from around 11am until 4pm. In order to generate the right scale of event, we seek to open 2-3 boathouses for tours, small events and displays to show the history of Cam rowing. It could be that activities take place around the Beaulands Close/Kimberley Road area, hopefully involving Goldie Boathouse, College and city boathouses nearby. There are no local rowing events that day we are aware of, although the Dragon Boat Race will be taking place on Ditton Meadows ( www.dragonboatfestivals.co.uk/dragon-boat-festivals/cambridge-festival/), potentially rendering much of the Cam unusable for regular on-Cam outings. One vision for the future would be to look for sponsorship and hope to tell the tale of the river to visitors with the involvement of rowers, boaters, canoeists, punt operators, and those who look after the river?s wellbeing. *Ideas for the day (these are just as examples and we would welcome input):* 1: Look good in the gym ? learn how to really use a rowing machine 2: Hourly displays of sculling skills 3: Guided tours along the hard, including tours inside Goldie 4: Refreshments in a boathouse (99s/ City bars?) 5: Displays showing the history of the College and Town Bumps ? perhaps including items like the Bumps cannons/ hooters 6: Parkside Rowing Challenge/ Amazon Rowing boat on display 7: Pre-booked tubbing sessions *Practicalities:* The Open Cambridge team will approach the Cam Conservators, Dragon Boat organisers, city council, Cam Boaters and any other organisation requiring input, to ensure the event is advertised and does not conflict with anything we are not aware of. The Open Cambridge Public Liability Insurance could cover the entire event. The Open Cambridge team may be able to assist identifying volunteers to assist on the day, and would welcome having some experts available from the rowing community to talk about their experience, steward tours of the hard etc. They would also advertise the event through 10k copies of the Open Cambridge programme, the website, the What?s On mailing list and liaise with the media to attract publicity. Open Cambridge is co-ordinated by the Public Engagement team at the University of Cambridge, which works across the University and Colleges to support public research discussion and community outreach work. http://www.opencambridge.cam.ac.uk/ If you are interested in principle, please tell me (< Paul.Holland at admin.cam.ac.uk>) as soon as possible or by the 10 May, so I can ask the Open Cambridge team to begin negotiations over logistics and the ethos of a Cam event with relevant partners in good time. Kind regards Paul Holland. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Wilf. --- Greetings Cambridge College Rowers, My name is Henry Hoffstot, and I am the newly elected President of the CUBC. I am writing to encourage all the Cambridge college oarsmen that have the desire to come trial for the university team in September. As is apparent to all, we have a big task in facing Oxford next March, and the more talented oarsmen that walk in the door to trial on day 1, the stronger the boats we will ultimately be able to field on the day. Also, we typically get fewer incoming experienced rowers in an Olympic year so it will be a great year for college rowers to trial. That being said, we will have a 2k test in September with the expectation that successful trialists are under 6:20. This is a much more realistic target than it might seem with the use of a strategic summer training plan--something I would be happy to help with. There will be a meeting (non-mandatory) for all trialists on Tuesday June 9th at Goldie Boathouse at 4pm which I would encourage you to attend (should only be about 20minutes), even if you are undecided on if you will be trialling. Let me know if you have any questions, and I hope to see you in September (official start Day/Time TBC) if not sooner. GDBO.
