As a final update, the Connecticut River has been on the rise for quite some time now.  As it passed into what is known as 'flood stage' the City of Middletown has removed our docks until further notice, causing us to relocate out practice operations about 25 minutes down the road to Lake Pocotopaug in East Hampton, CT.  We will be rowing there until further notice as we prepare for next weekend's face off against Smith, Colby, WPI and Middlebury.
