Summary of Crew ExpensesThe 2010 Dues amounts will remain the same: $350 for spring, $200 for summer, $200 for Fall, $100 for winter. Spring Dues are due by March 15, 2010. Several types of expenses are associated with crew. First, each rower must pay dues to both the West Side Rowing Club and the City Honors Crew team. 1) West Side Rowing Club Dues. This money pays for an individual membership to WSRC. West Side has gone to a seasonal dues structure. See the Estimated Expenses page for details. 2) City Honors Crew Dues. This money pays for team dues to US Rowing and West Side, insurance, equipment, and boat repairs. This annual fee is due in September. Second, each rower must pay regatta costs: entry fees plus travel costs, hotel accommodations, and food for away regattas. In addition, rowers must buy a unitard and other crew clothing, and frequent practices require additional athletic wear. Every effort is made to keep expenses to a minimum, but costs can add up quickly. If you need help with ANY expenses, please contact the Head Coach or Treasurer and arrangements will be made. No student who wants to row for City Honors will be turned away. On the Estimated Expenses page you will find approximate expenses for crew based on the previous year. |
