Class of 1961 Shell Gift

We did it. Together we raised over $40,000 to purchase a new Resolute shell for the Dartmouth Crew.

Through this effort, we are continuing a lasting  tradition whereby Alumni Oarsmen give shells to the Friends of Dartmouth Rowing to ensure that our programs have access to a competitive fleet dedicated by Dartmouth rowers.

We plan to dedicate our Class of 1961 shell at the boathouse in Hanover during the Gardner Cup festivities on September 29th, 2012. We also plan to have a '61 rowing celebration dinner at the Norwich Inn on Friday night, September 28th preceding the Gardner Cup.

Let's enjoy this together. Save the dates, and join us to celebrate the dedication of our shell in September.

Jim Gilchrist, Denny Denniston, John Damon, Eric Foster, Bill Farrens, Read Ambler

PS September 29th is also a home football game, so make your reservations early.
