Dear rowing friends,
First, the bad news: Next weekend there will be no kitchen operation. The kitchen has already moved to our new Café Interim, but the infrastructure is still missing. The good news is: For all those who are now disappointed, there is a remedy: Rolf and Nick have a lot of work but also a delicious snack and drinks for those who help. For the latter, please bring your own cups, we no longer have a washing option.
Here is Rolf's invitation:
Next Saturday we finally turn onto the motorway for clubhouse renovation. But: We must not miss the driveway in any case, i.e. there is a lot of work to be done again. We have to bring the historic wooden spinde (the middle blocks have been disassembled by then), the kitchen furniture and the ‘half tent’ to Penzberg, where we rented a storage room.
We are planning to rent a moving car, but it has to be loaded and unloaded with combined forces. Two journeys may also be necessary – so it may take time.
We meet around 11:00 for discussion and classification. After the first trip, there is a Really good lunch :-). You are also welcome to contact people who can come a little later and then be available for the second ride.
For all those who can not tow, there are plenty of fine-tuning tasks in the ladies' house. The pergola is also still waiting for some help to make it fit for interim operation.
Please mobilize your last motivation and strength to help and please register at rolf.schuh1@googlemail.com. We need every available hand.
Men's changing room
The men please use their original changing room in the 1. OG of the clubhouse as well as the small changing room next to it in the former board room. One of the two shower areas also works. You are welcome to use it.
Attention to the stair railing
Something has been affected and is no longer stable. Please don't lean.
Thank you to all the helpers - together we can do it!
Your board of directors
Donations
Clear the way – our common course towards the future
Your donation – small or large – brings us closer to the goal of renovating our beautiful, venerable boathouse. Every contribution counts. Each euro shows: We are pulling together – as if in a boat. For our planning, we assume that each member contributes an average of €1,000 – also in partial amounts or staggered over the entire construction period. This is how we manage to get our century project on track together.
Donations will, of course, Donation receipts issued. You're there right now? Then let's go!
So that you know exactly where your money is going, we offer you two possibilities to bring your donation directly to the water:
