RCA ANNUAL MEETING 2019 ELECTION CANDIDATE STATEMENT: Peter McClelland Dear Rowing Canada clubs and members, After approximately a decade in rowing and retiring following the London Olympiad, I am happy to be involved with Rowing Canada once again. It has been especially rewarding to have been the Athlete Director over the past two years, a role that I enjoyed immensely. I am now excited to put my name forward for a Director at Large position on the RCA Board of Directors. I began my rowing career at Western University, served as President of the rowing club for 4 years and founded the team’s endowment fund. During the summers, I rowed for the Ottawa Rowing Club and competed at numerous Royal Canadian Henley Regattas. I then joined the Cambridge University Boat Club (England) and was a part of the winning light blue boat in the 2010 Boat Race. Once I had completed my studies overseas, I returned to Canada to join the national team and was lucky enough to win medals at the World Rowing Championships, Pan American Games and Commonwealth Rowing Championships before retiring in 2012. I now reside in Toronto and act as the President of the Mustang Old Oars Club (the Western Rowing alumni club) and as a Director of the UWO Boat Club. Although I don’t get out on the water as much as I would like these days, I am a member of the Hanlan Boat Club and still enjoy rowing my single as well as joining both Western and Cambridge alumni crews at the Head of the Trent and the Head of the Charles, respectively. Upon retiring from rowing, I took up finance as my profession. I began as an investment banker with Scotiabank and now spend my time as a private equity investor with OMERS, the $97 billion Ontario municipal workers’ pension fund. I have been lucky to gain significant experience in both industries, including serving as an observer and key contributor on four boards of directors in my time with OMERS. 1 1.877.722.4769 / [email protected] / 321 – 4371 Interurban Road Victoria, BC V9E 2C5 / ROWINGCANADA.ORG I am keen to leverage the skills gained in my professional career to help further the RCA mission. My experience in finance and fundraising, my involvement with numerous businesses, and specifically my extensive board experience (including on the RCA Board of Directors for the past two years) combined with my years as a national team athlete, all put me in good stead to be an asset for RCA. I look forward to continuing to give back to a sport that has given me so much. Sincerely, Peter McClelland 2 .

Rowonec News
ROWONEC NEWS October 2018 UPCOMING EVENTS AGM - ONEC’s annual general meeting will take place on October 23 at Elmwood School. Directors will present their seasonal reports; financial statements will be presented, and a new board of directors will be voted in. All ONEC members should attend. Boats up - All hands are needed to store the boats and get the boathouse ready for the winter. October 27 is the date (rain date Sunday October 28). DIRECTORS REPORT The National Capital Commission is planning to accelerate the ONEC Boathouse restoration. The Boathouse will be restored and winterised on the three floors. There should be a restaurant on the ballroom level, but the upper deck is supposed to be open to the public. Most importantly the washrooms will be modernised and hooked up to the City’s sewage system. ONEC is a ‘legacy tenant’ of the boathouse and will have use of the boat storage floor and deck area. They have said that they will support us completely in the transition. We are meeting the NCC later in the week and then on an ongoing basis and we will provide more information once we have it. Kudos to all our volunteer coaches who helped to improve our sculling training. This was a major improvement this year. Thanks also to all who maintain the equipment and docks. All things must come to an end. It looks like we will move to ‘yellow season’ (restricted rowing due to cold water) very soon. After that we hope everyone can come to the Boats UP on Saturday, October 27.

Head of the Trent Regatta Rules Special Notes for Competitors
Head of the Trent Regatta Rules 2019 Special Notes for Competitors A. Rowers are permitted to compete in back to back divisions but are reminded that launch docks and the canal have strict cut off times and missed races are considered a scratch. B. All safety marshals on the course have the power to ensure safety and monitor adherence to the HOTR Rules. Marshals may assess time penalties or exclude crews as appropriate. Athletes are reminded to treat all safety boats, race marshals and officials, RCA Umpires, and fellow competitors with courtesy and respect. C. As this is a Head Race, it is possible that there may be clashing of oars and potentially even collisions, as attempts are made to pass. However, any intentional interference caused by a crew, may result in a time penalty or even exclusion by the Umpires or race officials. Rowing Canada Rules of Racing that are not observed or are augmented by a local rule: (Head of the Trent Regatta will be referred to as HOTR) ❖ 2.3 – Categories of Rowers and Proof of Age and Identity ➢ For university events, the OUA requirements and categories will be used, which vary from the categories in the RCA Rules of Racing. ID will not be required at registration and will not be checked for any other division ➢ For university events, all participants must be student athletes registered at their institution and on the roster for their respective teams. ➢ Identification will be not checked but upon request, government or for university events, institutional identification must be produced. ❖ 2.4- Coxswains, 2.5 Coxswains Weights, 2.6 Weighing of Coxswains ➢ Coxswains will not be weighed at the regatta and therefore, no weight minimum or deadweight are required ❖ 2.7 – Master’s Rowers ➢ HOTR uses an alternative masters Category system ❖ 2.8 – Master’s age Adjusted time Systems ➢ HOTR does not use this system ❖ 2.10 - Lightweight Competitors ➢ An allowance to the maximums for lightweight competitors will be 2.0kg.
