Greetings everyone.
Well, it's raining again. What happened to summer? Actually, it's not even officially summer yet, is it? I guess we can't complain then, eh?
Anyway, tonight's practice is going to be a TBD again. It looks as though people are leaning toward doing the Montreal festival at the end of July, so 500 metres will be our focus until then. However, tonight I would like to spend some more time working on technique if we can. For those of you who weren't there on Tuesday, we did a lot of work and started to focus on some aspects of our paddling that will make us more efficient, not only individually, but as a boat. I would like to continue that tonight for those who were there on Tuesday and for all (and by all I mean as many as possible) of you who will be coming tonight.
See you all on the water. Dress warm!
P.S. If you haven't already responded to Annie's e-mail about the June 24th and July 1st practices, as well as which festivals you would like to race, please do!

First things first, great job everyone at the festival on Saturday! The improvements we have made since last year are already quite impressive and I am very optimistic for the rest of the summer! I hope everyone had a relaxing Sunday and that you are all recovering well.
Tonight's practice is TBD (to be determined.) The reason for this is simply that we have to decide which festivals we are going to participate in for the rest of the summer in order for me to plan the training accordingly. Planning a program for 500-metre or 250-metre races can be quite different.
The other reason it is TBD is that we may be missing a few people tonight and the weather is looking a touch precarious. I know that Shannah, Marco, Annie and Kent won't be there. So, try to show up tonight please! The more we have, the better. That being said, keep an eye on the weather. There is a chance of thunderstorms tonight. If it is just raining, come on out. If there's a storm within 30 minutes of our practice time, that may change things.
See you all tonight! (hopefully...)
