On behalf Wof the Regatta’s five Managing Directors, Katherine Kirk, John Lambert, Chuck Pieper, Roger Borggaard, and myself—as well as long-time CFO Tom Martin and executive director Fred Schoch—I would like to take this opportunity to welcome you to America’s Fall Rowing Festival. Throughout the last four decades Cambridge Boat Club (CBC) has been the “host club” of the Head Of The Charles perfecting a successful head-style regatta. This year also marks the 100th anniversary of the Cambridge Boat Club. The Regatta was founded in 1965 by a core group from within CBC, and the event owes its start to the pioneering spirit of early event organizers. Well done CBC; thanks for all your support and congratulations on your 100th. Rowing is a sport filled with cycles and this fall the Regatta is the beneficiary of one such cycle in particular. In a post- Olympic year, international athletes from around the world, having just come off the intensity of the World Championship in Poznan, Poland are generally afforded a more relaxed cycle following such a focused training period.

  • Totally Oarsome…
    Leander New s Leander Club Newslette r Winter 2010 Totally Oarsome… Leander has had another very strong year in 2010. We have produced winning crews at every level and with the World Championships less than a week away, there is promise of yet more success for Leander athletes and coaches in New Zealand. These Championships are two months later than usual to fit in with the New Zealand summer, and as a result it seems strange to be reflecting on the season thus far when it is not yet finished. One of the positives of this situation is that it reduces the amount of winter training that many of us will have to do for the 2011 season! The most recent addition to the team is Beijing silver medallist Debbie Flood, who following a training camp in Germany has been confirmed as competing in the women’s quad - the boat in which she has twice won silver at successive Olympic Games.

  • Pittsburgh, PA Previous GTCA City 2013
    Pittsburgh, PA Previous GTCA City 2013 Contact: Tom Piccone ([email protected]); Andy Wang ([email protected]) ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ The Church of God in Pittsburgh The Church of God in Pittsburgh was originally established as the Church in Pittsburgh in 1983, primarily through a migration of saints mainly from Ohio. Some years after a turmoil, the Church of God in Pittsburgh was incorporated in 2017. The church does not presently have a meeting hall, but meets on university campuses and in various saints’ homes. Approximately 40 currently gather on Lord’s Day mornings, including four children. The racial composition of the church is 59% Chinese and 16% Caucasian, with the remaining 25% a mix of Korean, Vietnamese, Black, and Indian. The current church life in Pittsburgh focuses primarily on campus work at the University of Pittsburgh (Pitt) and Carnegie Mellon University (CMU), though the need to gain more families is of equal priority (and not necessarily separate). Each year, the Lord adds remaining fruit to His Body through the saints’ labor on the campuses to gain college and graduate students, and sometimes university staff. In the past 12 years of campus work, dozens have been gained, but most have moved away. Only a handful of them have not been Asian. While the saints in Pittsburgh welcome all who would like to move here, we particularly see a need for young American families to migrate to the Pittsburgh area in order to share the burden of shepherding and gaining some from the population of American students and families for the strengthening of His testimony in this locality and region.
