The following segment aired on the 6:00 evening news on WBZ CBS on March 23, 2011.  It's a nice piece of coverage of a defining moment in Team Saquish rowing history.  Not enough can be said of the seven women involved.  Their actions reflect tremendous credit upon themselves, Team Saquish, and the overall spirit and tradition of open water rowing.

This year's Snow Row is one that will not soon be forgotten. The entire Saquish fleet was on the water, with each crew having their own story to tell at the end of the day. Congratulations to the men of the Interceptor for bringing back the coveted golden clam shell to Saquish Rowing. The Tucker, crewed by the Mother Tuckers and coxed by Master and Commander Sterling Wall, also was a winner with the best time in its class - well done. The most important story of the day, however, was the crew of the Jenness and their rescue of five rowers who were capsized, found and saved. With Janet Reddy's skill with the rudder, I hear each rower was plucked from the sea one by one, unharmed.  Congratulations!  A proud moment for us all.

We rowed to Clark's Island on Saturday, December 4th, and spent the day exploring and cutting down Christmas trees on Skip Taylor's Tree Farm.  We took the usual stroll to the graveyard and to see the original Plymouth rock.  Thank you Skip!  Please visit www.hilarymoll.com to see photos.

The Board of Directors is getting ready to put together a coxing clinic.  We don’t have many details yet, but it will be for beginners and then another version for more experienced coxswains.  The clinic might be a mix of in-class and on water exercises.

We are looking for volunteers to form a committee on putting such a clinic together.  The intent is to issue a certificate of attendance that we will also offer to other clubs.  If interested, let Tony Ruocco know.
