Familiar Faces in Yankee Magazine

Yankee Magazine, Sept/Oct 2013 issue.

A generous camper pointed out some Craftsbury-ans in the September/October 2013 issue of Yankee. In an article titled "A Dream Renewed on a Holy River", Kristen Laine talks of the Head of the Charles Regatta in general, and the story of the 2012 Senior Master Women's 8+ in particular. The race was the annual clash between the 1980 Rowing Club and Etats-Unis, composite teams of female Olympians from the '80 and '84 US National Teams, scullers and rowers respectively. Included in this group is of course our own Judy Geer, Carlie Geer and Carol Bower.

Craftsbury coaches and staff in this spread (clockwise from top left): Judy Geer shoulders the 8+ (bigger than her 1x, definitely!), Carlie and Judy in the bay, and Associate Director Carol Bower.

It's a good read for any rower - or anyone hoping to get a sense of the rowing festival that is the Head of the Charles. Click over to Yankee's website for the full text and more pics.
