We are currently waiting for our time slot from the athletic department and will update you as soon as we receive our training times. Training will be offered Monday through Saturday and is not mandatory, but highly recommended for rowers trying out for the team in January. Workouts will consist of ERG training, weight-lifting, and cardio conditioning in 2 hour sessions at the high school. 8th graders are invited to pre-winter training 3 days a week. Dates and rates for both high school and 8th graders will be finalized on 11/1 by the board and will be sent out on Ridgewood Crew news. Team Try-Outs Tentative try-outs for the 2018 team will be January 8 and 9. Details coming.... 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!!
