Thanks Holyoke for hosting us for the Shad row. (Note - the American Shad is a typically saltwater fish that heads to freshwater for spawning. Adults often (but not always) die after they have spawned so at this time of the year in the Connecticut river, we see a lot of dead, floating fish! )

Congratulations to Regina for completing her first ever regatta! Carson (far right) and Regina (in black) are two of our STCC rowers.
