FC Crew Shell Dedication Ceremony

Please help us to express our deep appreciation to the McCarthy family for the gift of a new Vespoli 4+ into our fleet. For 6 years, the McCarthy family gave freely of their time and energy in many ways not evident to the casual observer. From Steve's novice year, to Robin organizing our travel, to Steve guiding our finances and legal issues, to Katie's final race at US Rowing Nationals. The McCarthy family opened their hearts, home and wallet to Fox Chapel Crew in a way that few families have in the history of our crew.

We sincerely hope you will join us on Tuesday, August 18th at 7pm at the Millvale boathouse as we dedicate the RSSK, donated by the McCarthy family, and the Richard A. Campbell, our new pair/double.
