TAKE OUT DAY IS TOMORROW (3/19) 10:00am-1:30pm, and we have a large fleet to prepare for the season! We will rig several boats (incl. 2 new-to-us @kingracingshells) & de-rig an 8 to send off for repairs. All sweep and scull members are expected to attend. dcstrokes.org
It's been a minute since the end of the season. Let's connect for happy hour at @CrazyAuntHelens (713 8th St., SE DC), Friday 2/10 @ 5:00pm. BTW, did we mention *happy hour specials*?!

POSTPONED:Saturdays AMBTIF boat dedication with Arshay Cooper has been postponed due to forecasted hurricane-related weather in DC this weekend (and also the fact that two of the Howard rowers were coming in from Tampa, and obviously their safety is paramount). New date TBD! – at Washington, DC

#throwbackthursday: Unfortunately, the 13.1-mile Wye Island Regatta no longer exists. But in 2012, DC Strokes took home medals in the masters M8+ and W8+ events, and an additional 16 adventurous novices took on the half-marathon challenge.

Coast to coast! Strokes sent a 4-person contingent to @eastbayrowingclub’s Boats Without Barriers in Oakland, CA last Saturday. EBRC hosted the regatta in protest of USRowing Masters Nationals in FL. We're lucky to have an ally like EBRC!

MAKE A STATEMENT FUNDRAISER!
A social media comment called DC Strokes and our '22 Masters Nationals boycott supporters "misinformed radical activists." Instead of being offended, we turned it into a fundraiser. Get yours: dcstrokes.org/shop
