2009/2010 Winter Training
We have our great indoor training facility again this year: 20
ergs, heat, locker rooms, showers, stretching room and more. It
is easy to get to just off of I-75 at route 35. Adults will have
a regular weekday morning session plus weekday evenings and Saturday
mornings. The Juniors are planning on 4-6pm on Mon-Thur plus Saturday
morning.
2009 Adult Program Recap
The GDRA adult rowing program continued to flourish under the directorship
of Linda Clemens. Our competitive team kicked off the season at
the Columbus MidWest Sprints in both sweep and sculling events and
concluded the year at the Head of the Hooch. Our adult membership
reached over 60 rowers by the end of the season, including both
competitive and recreational scullers and sweep rowers.
2009 Junior Recap
The GDRA junior rowing program had a spring season under Head Coach
Elizabeth Reed and assistant coaches Liz, Denise, Vicky and Beth.
Brent Figg was hired as Head Coach in the Fall season. Brent has
ambitious plans for the program coming up.
The 2008 Rookie Rower program flourished yet again under Todd Sobol's
direction. This junior high school rowing camp always produces a
surge of exuberance in mid-summer.
Docks pulled out Nov 15, 2009
With the Head of the Hooch marking the end of the racing season,
and the evening light gone, we have pulled 100' of the docks our
for the winter. We left 30' in place for those the hardy souls and
the occasional warm weekend.

Docks launched March 29, 2009
I did not expect anyone to show up for the work crew on Sunday.
It was 38 degrees and raining with a stiff wind. But sixteen GDRA
members appeared along with the UD men's crew. After 2 hours, we
had 130' of dock back in the water.
2008/2009 Winter
The GDRA winter season benefited greatly from a new indoor facility
in downtown Dayton. It was a big change from a cold boat bay. We
had a heated erg room with 20 ergs, weight room, stretching room
and locker rooms.
