As a fundraiser, rowers in the BRC juniors program are selling Nalgene water bottles. These bottles are made with a wide-mouth top and will hold a glorious 32 ounces of fluid. The juniors are asking $15 for each bottle.

If you would like a bottle, please contact Kathy Nickel or any juniors rower. (Juniors are easily identified by their small stature and reluctance to eat vegetables.)

If paying by check, please make it payable to "Baltimore Rowing Club". This first run of bottles was limited and will be available on a "first come, first served" basis.

You may have noticed these Amazon.com links and boxes es throughout the website. As a fundraising effort, we have started an affiliate program with Amazon.com ... and it's simple to participate!

Have a need for rowing books, movies, music, or anything else available from Amazon.com? Follow these simple steps:

1. Head to www.baltimorerowing.org


2. Find a link to Amazon.com on the site. These links should be at the bottom of every page.


3. Once inside Amazon.com, shop and pay as you normally would.

That's it!

Although the links and graphics on our site advertise rowing items available on Amazon.com, you do not have to buy those suggested items -- or any rowing-related items at all -- for the transaction to count towards our coffers. Any purchase you make -- after clicking on any Amazon.com on the Baltimore RC site -- will count. Every bit helps, so please accept our thanks in advance!

We are thinking about another bulk order for the 2006 BRC yearbook. Individual copies are always available, but with a bulk order -- in the neighborhood of 20 or so, we can see some savings on the book and shipping. (Juniors, bug your parents!)
