VII. Coach Nick
-If you are too sick to come to practice (and only YOU can make that
decision) do not contact Jill or Nick, just don't show up.  They are
getting bombarded with messages from people who are not coming to
practice.
-If you have to miss a practice, just make sure you make it up and
write down your stats for that day on the sheet for the original
practice.  Nick uses those statistics to decide who will be in the
boats for regatta come spring, so the more practice you have on
record, the better your chances are.
-If you are too ill to attend a practice, you are too ill to go out
with your friends at night.  Don't take advantage of this.

VIII. Habitat For Humanity
-The team will be working with Habitat for Humanity as a community
service project.
-In order to raise money for the organization, we will be hosting a
themed social-Construction Workers!  Look for more information soon.

IX. Practice
-There is practice tomorrow, Friday at 6:30 and 7:30 AM.  There will
be no Saturday practice this weekend.
