I'll go first then. Graduated from Forest Park High School, going to Virginia Tech to study Aerospace or Ocean engineering. Looking to row but at the moment that might be pushed back because ROTC will take up a huge chunk of time (ROTC is Marine Corps btw). Ship out the 13th of August to begin h*** ...

I too would like to express my sympathy and sorrow for those affected. I have family living in England and I can only hope that those responsible are caught.

The school i rowed for (that is before i graduated ) gave the option of a full body uni or just a top half like a wife-beater. I definitely went witht the top half one.

I would second northern virginia. There are a lot of really good schools with really good programs. I personally row for Forest Park High School, but if you're looking for a big name school, look at Washington Lee or even Thomas Jefferson if you can.

I just purchased a used Maas Single to take with me when I go to college, and I have to say that it is better than rowing in my Light 4. Just being by yourself is awesome. But I went into it not knowing which hand went where and I can go at a pretty good pace now. Even entering my first novice 1X ra...

I'm trying to find some other rowing forums. Are there any other good ones out there? So far, this is the only really good one that I can find, but I'm looking for something more related to rowing on the water.
