The grant application for a 45 foot shipping container from the Shasta Regional Community Foundation was denied for unspecified reasons. This is the 3rd time we’ve been denied a grant application from this entity, and it’s discouraging because there’s a lot of effort in these applications. Not sure what we are doing wrong. Since the Keswick theft, all equipment has been vacated from the Keswick Lake boat yard & moved to Reese’s house. Two 4s have been transported to Lou’s for hull repair, which is complete. A pair of stolen riggers for the Monica Havelka quad have been ordered from Neaves Rowing. Kevin and Reese footed the bill. We just noticed the thieves also stole the rudder and steering foot stretcher from the Ray Tomas 4. The DA called and said the receiver of some of the stolen property is going to court & we’ll be filing a claim for the pair of sculls that had their blades cut off. There is still vandalism occurring at Keswick, someone removed an old 4 used as a barrier from the boat yard and used it to block the launch ramp. The status of the dock is pending. No one is rowing, except for a few car topping scullers. There is a virtual meeting planned for next week, the first meeting in many months. We’re dead in the water – need to decide on path forward and take action. Maybe Whiskeytown NRA will take us back now that the Carr Fire burn scar is healing. Nelo Rowing will be in town to demo equipment on Sunday at Whiskeytown. Kevin received 4 brand new riggers for the Vespoli Matrix 33 2x that was donated to the club – which we then donated to Kevin to fix up and get it rowable. Greg Reimann has a pair of Dreher sculls that he will be donating, as we are definitely short of club sculling oars. These are very difficult times for a lot of reasons.
