The Santa Cruz Rowing Club is proud to present the 26th Annual Lobster Row on Sunday, October 3, 2010. This well-known race has attracted some of California's best open water rowers through the years, and provided an opportunity for those new to racing to enjoy a beautiful course. Accompanied by a delicious meal by Chef Poppy de Garmo, a good time is had by all.

The Lobster Row is one of the club's biggest events, and it's one of the most enjoyable ways that you can put in your volunteer hours. Many people have already started working on it, but several tasks remain to be done. Please take a moment to review the list below to see if any of these tasks fit your abilities and schedule. Since non- rowing spouses, significant others and family often enjoy being included, they may also volunteer, and their time spent counts towards your hours.

Please let me know ASAP by return email or a phone call, which task(s) you'd like to take on.

Thanks to all you fabulous volunteers -- these events, and the Club itself, cannot happen without you!
