A Few From This Past Weekend
by swu on Mar 07 07:03pm
Saturday we headed out to the Rosemead training facility to do erg testing and did a tiny bit of paddling in the pool - until it started pouring rain.



Sunday we were back on the water. Yet another beautiful day in Long Beach

Only a few more practices before Tempe!

On Water Practice Only This Weekend
by swu on Feb 22 08:07pm
For this weekend only, LARD will have on water practices only. There will be no land training either day.
Reason?
The coaches will be running a paddling clinic for the Los Angeles Pink Dragons on Saturday.
On Sunday all of the coaches and some of our paddlers will be participating in the Chinatown Firecracker run.
Will has agreed to run practice on Sunday. Thanks, Will!

Practice & Evites
by swu on Jan 30 06:51pm
With the official start of the 2010 race season right around the corner (February 20), we're seeing the team's excitement at our off season weekend practices. I hope to see more and more of you at practice as the week's progress.
Because of new SCDBC regulations, we need your help in responding as quickly as you can to the team evites that are going out at the beginning of each week. Please respond to these evites by Wednesday afternoon so we can notify SCDBC of our boat needs for the upcoming weekend. The sooner you can "nail down" your weekend plans, the better we will be able to get the team out on the water in a timely fashion.
If you don't receive an evite by Tuesday, please email me or any of the other coaches.
Thanks,
Scott

Happy New Year
by kkim on Jan 08 07:21am
We have our insurance policy and are now allowed to practice on the water if and only if you have signed the new waivers for the insurance company. If you have not signed one, you will not be allowed to paddle on the water.
Speaking of paddling on the water, there will be practice this weekend!
Saturdays are still at 9am, but our Sunday schedule has been changed for this year.
Sunday practices are now at 7:30am.
There are new attendance requirements by the SCDBC (the fine group that rents us boat time). Be sure to checkin to have your attendance taken so we can remain in compliance with these new SCDBC rules.
See you out on the water!
