Parent Chaperones
1. This training trip is a cooperative endeavor that requires help from many parent chaperones. Please consider coming for the whole week, or even a few days.
2. Parent chaperones need to complete the Saint Ignatius chaperone certification. For details see CHAPERONE CENTRAL. Contact Michael Tarpy (michael.tarpy@saintignatiusrowing.org) of the Safety Committee or Tess Martin (tess.martin@ignatius.org) of the St. Ignatius Office of the Prefects with any questions.
3. In order to stay on schedule and have chaperones where they need to be, if a rower is not traveling with the bus (ie. leaving early, going elsewhere) the rower’s parents must plan to arrive for pick up the night/day before.
Registration for Spring Season
Spring Training is optional, but highly encouraged, training and not required in order to participate in the Spring rowing season. However the trip is only available to rowers that are signed up for the Spring Rowing season.

A detailed overview of the entire trip is provided on our website on the Spring Break Trip page.
