Hi Everyone,
As many of you may know Boston College High School rows out the Esplanade/Hatch Shell Lagoon. This fall we have had some growth in our team size and I'd like to communicate with everyone regarding our plan to manage our squad in the lower basin.
Each day, in order to accommodate the sailers at CBI, we launch through the cut between the islands in front of Union Boat Club/Community Boating, and have boats either proceed across the river to the 2k start or head directly to the Science Center (we may use the Union Lane if conditions merit). We also return through the upstream end of the lagoon, normally via the Union Lane.
We are generally on the water daily from 3:30 – 5:30 p.m., Saturdays, 9:30 - 11:30 a.m. On Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, however, we will also have a group of 7th and 8th graders rowing in the area below the Longfellow Bridge (2–3 Eights). All of our blades are white with a maroon and gold stripe at the tip.
Safety is paramount, yet we recognize the reality of adolescents sometimes erring in judgement. If at anytime you witness one of our crews, or coaches, putting themselves or others at risk, please feel free to contact me.
All the best and hope you enjoy your time on the water!

ALERT! 2 Important Issues to know about TODAY!
See the note below from the State regarding closing the the Boston arch of Anderson bridge tomorrow, and reopening the center arch. As you know, this requires a traffic pattern change, and at a bad time of year. Please, rowers, please comply with the change in traffic pattern until the Boston arch re-opens (meaning, you can't row the Head of the Charles course at that bridge). Specifically, please help by
- using the center arch as downstream only, and the cambridge arch for all upstream traffic even during practice pieces, Heads of the Kevin, etc.
- post signs, send emails and do anything else you need to do to proactively warn all visitors launcing from your docks that they need to use the cambridge arch heading upstream until the Boston arch reopens.
- using extreme caution (read: no pressure) and check to be sure no one is coming towards you when heading downstream through the center arch - just in case someone doesn't get the message
Please, everyone make sure that we're all on the same page.
Second item of note - we hear that safety buoys will be going in today or tomorrow (weather pending) on the Eliot turn to help keep upsteam and downstream traffic separated. Please note that these are placed for safety, not to mirror the race day course. They are also placed to not present a problem for the power boaters.
