The Crew Online Apparel Store is now Open!!!

Great selection and great fundraiser for the team! Orders can be placed until Nov 4th using the link below and will be delivered to myself, Nicole Gibson.

I just want to Highlight a couple items:

  • Holloway Ladies' Artillery Headband: not only is it cute but it has a ponytail hole making it more comfortable.
  • Holloway Practice Bag:  Long time favorite for the Ridgewood rower, they depend on this bag.
  • Charles River Adult Classic Rugby: Just plain stylish and cute!!
  • Charles River Adult Pacific Poncho:  Always be prepared for those sudden rain storms.
  • Under Armour Hustle Fleece 2.0 Crew:  Small Crew Crest on front and you can have the Rowers last name across the back.

Take a look, the large logo is bigger than it will appear on the apparel.  It will be approximately 7 inch wide by 8.5 inch.

Ridgewood Crew is happy to offer Grocery Gift Cards as well as Holiday Gift Cards.

For the Grocery Gift Cards, the participating grocery stores are, Kings, ShopRite, Stop & Shop, and Whole Foods. The Grocery Cards come in $100 increments and Ridgewood Crew receives 5% back!

For the Holiday gift Cards, there are many stores to choose from with the percentage coming back to Ridgewood Crew as high as 15 % for some stores! Purchase them for yourself or with the Holidays approaching, why not give them as gifts or even shop with them!!

All cards work like a debit card so you don’t have to spend the entire card in one visit to the store and the cards have no expiration date. The best part is you get to spend the full amount of the card while the companies donate the percentage to Ridgewood Crew. If every family purchased just two cards a month, Ridgewood crew could garner as much as $5000.00 by years end. It is great to earn money for items that we all need to buy anyway.

Please consider participating!!
