The involvement of our rowing parents is crucial to the success of our team. There will be a Sign up Genius generated a week prior to every race to request participation for food donations for race day. You are not obligated to participate but it is greatly appreciated if you do.
Additional volunteer needs (most will be included in Sign up Genius each week):
Hauler: Provide a pick-up truck capable of hauling the boat and equipment trailer to and from a race.
Cook: Our food coordinator provides the menu and supplies you will need. All you have to do is be attentive to cooking the food. Cooking positions are available in shifts throughout the day of the regatta.
Server: Servers keep the food coming and the tables clean. They are responsible for keeping the team fed throughout the day. It requires only 1-3 hours volunteering and several parents can work together to get this job done.
Set-Up Team: This responsibility occurs a little before the team arrives at the regatta. This job requires you to set up tents, grill and food prep station, food tables, etc. Get your volunteer task in early and relax and enjoy the rest of the day.
Tear-Down Team: During the last hour of the regatta, the site and kitchen gets packed up while the rowers are busy getting the boats ready to head home. Perfect for those who cannot attend the entire regatta but can come towards the end of the day.
Fundraising: Each season our fundraising coordinator organizes several fundraising projects. There is often a need for adults to participate in many of our fundraising opportunities. It is a great way to spend some time with your student and get to know some of the other students and parents as well.
Be a board member: You can take great pride in knowing that you are helping to grow our team and make crucial decisions to guide the future of the team. You can spend as little as just a few hours a month working to generate ideas and develop new strategies to continue to lead this team to success. Please contact a board member if you are interested in finding out more information.
