Thanksgiving Day Turkey Row - Last day on-the-water  PHOTOS from Spurge Hogan
Historic record setting flood at the Princeton boathouse; Sunday, August 28, 2011.  Over four feet of water in the boathouse exceeds previous mark by about two feet.  Check out the photos at http://twitter.com/#!/search/tigerheavies and video from Doug Myers at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-gbSx1_Lshc.

Don't Use Bottled Water - In their effort to reduce the use of bottled water, the Princeton University Office of Sustainability installed filters on campus drinking fountains. Please help with this effort and bring your reusable bottle to rowing sessions. You can fill up your bottle with the newly installed spigot on the boathouse water fountain.

OarSAFETY TIP OF THE WEEK

Make sure you clean off erg handles (as well as seats and slides) and especially oar handles in the tanks both before and after a workout. Do not clean the erg monitor. Keeping handles clean will reduce the chance of spreading or catching infections, especially bacteria and fungi in open wounds and viruses that can cause colds, the flu and warts. Also make sure to wash your hands before touching them to your face or eating. The best way to keep from getting a cold or the flu is to prevent their spread. Make it a healthy winter!
