Business attire. Sold out. Thanks for your support. We have lots of awards and presentations planned: The highlight of the evening is the Coach of the Year Award. This year’s recipient is Paul Coomes, Conestoga HS, Bachelors Barge Club and PA Rowing Camp. We are pleased to announce the selection of Penn AC's Ivan Baldychev as our Athlete of the Year. Masters Athletes of the Year are Red and Sara Sargent. Our distinguished guest speaker will be Anita DeFrantz, an attorney and member of the International Olympic Committee and 1976 and 1980 Olympic teams. Anita is the president and member of the Board of Directors of the LA84 Foundation, which is managing Southern California's endowment from the 1984 Olympic Games. We will present mileage certificates to all individuals who rowed more than 1,000 miles in 2007. Here's a complete list of recipients. We will also recognize local members of the 2007 US national team. For ticket questions, contact Jo Grudziak. |
