Guest Rowers Needed for Cork Gladys Training Rows

[MartinS]

Hello all,

The Cork Gladys team (myself, Alison, Karen, Lesley, Marion, and Matt) are planning a number of training rows ahead of the Ocean to City event at the end of May. I don't think these dates conflict with other club activities, but if any do we can obviously cancel as there is still plenty of time before the race.

Since it’s rare that we’re all available at the same time, we’re looking for a few guest rowers to join us for some of these sessions!

Training Row Dates & Availability:

1. Friday 21 March – 13:30 (HT 15:15) Alison, Karen, Marion, Martin –looking for +1 or 2 guests
2. Sunday 23 March – 16:00 (HT 17:49) Alison, Lesley, Marion, Martin –looking for +1 or 2 guests
3. Sunday 6 April – 17:30 (HT 19:30) Karen, Lesley, Matt, Martin –looking for +1 or 2 guests
4. Friday 11 April – 09:45 (HT 11:30) Alison, Karen, Marion, Matt, Martin –looking for +1 guest
5. Sunday 13 April – 11:15 (HT 12:31) Karen, Lesley, Marion, Matt, Martin –looking for +1 guest


If you're interested in joining us for any of these sessions, please reply here with the dates that work for you.

Thanks in advance!
