Welcome from Head Coach Jay
Welcome to all Friends of Concord Crew! We are committed to providing an
all-inclusive competitive rowing experience for capital region youth. We are
proud of our successes in our first decade and humble about the work yet to
be accomplished. We hope this website provides the information you
need to understand, join, and support Concord Crew: who we are, what we do,
schedules, results, photos, registration information and ways to pitch in. Enjoy.
Can I get a Hoorah?
Concord Crew provides high school students with the opportunity to experience all the sport of rowing has to offer -- competition, team building, fitness, community service and, yes, fun. We are young athletes from the greater Concord, New Hampshire, area. We have a brand new boathouse on the Merrimack River, a fleet of top notch racing shells, an experienced coaching staff, and incredible support from the parents and friends of Concord Crew. We attend several fall races each year (usually the Textile River Regatta, the NH Championships and the Head of the Fish), a full slate of spring races (including the Crimson Cup, the Sleigh Cup in Hanover, and the Saratoga Invitational), we travel to South Carolina to train in February, we run a youth summer learn-to-row program, and organize winter conditioning. We accept everyone. All rowers participate in each practice and every race. There is no "bench" at Concord Crew where we regularly exceed 100 athletes. HOORAH!!
Announcements
Next Race, Hanover and Tabor, at Hanover, Saturday May 19
An afternoon race in Hanover against two strong programs. First race to start at 12:30. All athletes to arrive by 10:30. Athletes and gear can be dropped off at the Chieftan, but NO PARKING AT CHIEFTAN. See below. Same location as past years. Set your GPS to 95 Lyme Road, Hanover NH. This is Route 10 about two miles north of Hanover. The regatta site is behind the Chieftan Motor Inn.
IMPORTANT PARKING INFO.
From the Hanover coach: "All people watching the races will need to park at the Richmond Middle School lot or Garapay Field parking. There will be a shuttle or you can walk. Good exercise. NO PARKING AT THE CHEIFTAN. There will be a Shuttle bus going from Garapay Field parking on Resevoir Road and the RMS lot. If you are riding on Route 10 from Hanover to Lyme, you will come to a round-about. Take the first right exit off the round-about on to Resevoir Road. Garapay is the first lot on the right as you turn right off the round about. The RMS lot is obvious! Continue straight through the round about on Route 10 and you will see the Richmond Middle School building on your right. The shuttle will be starting at 11:15am until the event is done."
