This is a quick email to encourage everyone to get through the final two weeks with a minimum of problems, so please: - take lights if coming back close to lighting up, or even earlier if day is overcast; - don't cut up the Georgina as they are amicable and have a long stopping distance; - remember that while over the lock is clearer, it isn't empty and charging into things because you don't think there'll be anything there is a massive error. The swan and cygnets are now out on Plough Reach. Please be aware and avoid them if possible. Do not respond to situations with the residents there which have the potential to become very hostile. Please make every effort to remain calm and *quiet* and just row away, avoiding touching the swans. Finally, it's Strawberry Fair this weekend. Worth making the effort to lock boathouses when going out and please note that there are likely to be visiting boats that are very unfamiliar with the Cam.

Umpiring is a really fun way to get involved in the Bumps - you get to see and be involved in the action from up close on the towpath, either cycling along with the crews or acting as a static umpire at key points on the course. In addition to this, you will get a free dinner, probably in May Week, and umpiring will reduce the number of marshals that your club needs to provide. To help out, you don't need to have umpired before although we do ask that you have rowed or coxed in at least 2 sets of Bumps in the past. There will be a meeting for all umpires where we will explain everything and those that have not umpired before will be paired with a 'senior' during the races. If you would like to help out, please sign up at http://www.cucbc.org/mays/umpires/signup indicating which divisions you are available for (the times of the divisions are listed at http://www.cucbc.org/mays/times). You can both compete and umpire (although obviously don't sign up to umpire a division you're competing in!) If you have any questions, please get in touch.

Message-ID: <COL123-W26CA0C798A40C29120D839D6610@phx.gbl> Hello all, Chesterton Rowing Club are looking for one or maybe two 'bumps hardened' coxes for this year's town bumps(evenings, 19/7 to 22/7). To cox our M2 and M3 crews, who are in division 2 and division 4 respectively. The ideal applicants would be extremely tiny and light with a very long neck, a good sense of humour and good sense of direction. Actually, even if you're heavy and can't steer you may be in with a chance..not that we are desperate, of course. If you think you may be remotely interested in helping probably the smallest rowing club in Cambridge, sustain our positon and standing against the 'big boys'. Then, hesitate not, Chesterton Rowing Club needs you! Recompense, in the form of booze, fags and lots of gratitude...(chain smoking alcoholics need not apply) For information regarding possible outings and anything you wish to know, about this wonderful opportunity. Feel free to get in touch. Many thanks Simon Emmings Chesterton Rowing Club -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
