==================
New Wintech recreational 2x arrives

Adding to Nereid's fleet, the club has purchased a Wintech recreational 2x in addition to the recently acquired recreational 4x/+ w/cox. These boats are intended for use by our Learn to Row programs. However, they are also available for members to row.

At the Annual Dinner we will have a celebratory boat naming ceremony.

==================
Nereid hosts USRowing Level II Coaching Clinic this weekend

The club is hosting a Level II clinic at the boathouse this Saturday and Sunday. The meeting area upstairs will be unavailable from 9 to 5 on Saturday and 9 to 1 on Sunday.

==================
Annual Club Awards

Masters rowers who think they are eligible for awards should submit a list/summary to either Frank Schaefer or Andrea Hurwitz.

Club awards are won by achieving the greatest number of points as follows:

One point for each event entered
Three points for each win
Points are doubled for Team Nereid events.

==================
Annual Membership Dinner

The Annual Dinner has been scheduled for December 9 at the boathouse and promises to be a blast!  Dan and Briant, Nereid's club chefs, have promised to do even better than last year, when we had a roast pig, among other delicacies. 

Everyone should have received an Evite.  Please rsvp by 12/1 so we know how many members to expect.  The cost will be the same as last year, $35 per person, to be paid at the door.

==================
Saturday morning open row

On Saturday mornings at 9 AM, Nereid hosts an open row at the club. We will put crews together with anyone who shows up. Afterwards, there'll be breakfast at the boathouse.

==================
