New boat name = REGULATOR.

posted May 28, 2010 9:23 AM by GT Crew Alumni

The term regulate means to lay down the law by using force, or to return things to their normal status. The goal of a regulator is to eliminate an overly dramatic or dangerous situation.

From Wikipedia"Regulate" is a 1994 song performed by Warren G and Nate Dogg. Released in the summer of 1994, the track appears on the soundtrack to the film Above the Rim and later Warren G.'s album Regulate...G Funk Era. Supported by heavy radio airplay and MTV, the song reached #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and is considered the breakout single for both artists. The song popularized the term "Regulators! mount up."

The song tells a story in which Warren G., while looking for some "skirts" (women), is mugged in Long Beach, California. Nate Dogg is trying to find Warren G. at the same time, and when he sees that Warren G. is being mugged at gunpoint, he shoots dead the people mugging him in order to save his life. The two then look for women together, whom they eventually find.

We have an Endowment Fund!!

posted May 19, 2010 12:43 PM by GT Crew Alumni   [ updated May 19, 2010 12:44 PM ]

The GTCA is proud to announce that the GT Crew team officially has an Endowment Fund with the GT Foundation.

Let us explain. The Endowment Fund is what rowers, coaches and alumni have been trying to achieve for over 10 years. The establishment of an endowment will allow the team to earn interest on the money they already have and eventually be able to sustain the team on that interest alone. It will take time, of course, but the path has been cleared and we are at the beginning.
 
$25,000 was necessary in order to establish an endowment fund with the GT Foundation. With your generous contributions to the trailer fund, the GTCA and the team, we have finally reached that lucky number. Now that we have that - we can start to collect interest. With careful planning and management of the endowment, along with continued fundraising we can work to continue to grow that number into something the team can rely on for generations.  
 
The GTCA gave a check for $6,500 to the team at the Spring Picnic. We will continue to donate every year. This money comes from your donations to the GTCA and any fundraising we do during the year. Although we are not actively fundraising right now, you can always make a tax deductible donation directly to the endowment. Additionally, as you know, your membership to the GTCA is a large part of the annual donation provided to the team.

We hope you share in our excitement and plan to help us grow this fund over the next few years. To learn more about the endowment and how to contribute to the fund, please visit our Donate page.

Alumni Picnic is Rain or Shine!

posted Apr 23, 2010 1:38 PM by GT Crew Alumni

Just wanted to let everyone know that tomorrow's picnic is RAIN OR SHINE! If it is raining, we will be setting up in the ever-growing Boathouse. There is plenty of room under there and we'll still have great food & company! If it is raining, we won't make anyone row... but if it's not, IT'S ON!

GTCA wins the Pi Mile!

For the second year in a row, the GTCA won the Pi Mile 5k - earning another $500 towards the GT Crew team! Thank you everyone who came out and ran the race! We had a few surprise alumni show up... including Justin in his old school team jersey! (Pictured right, rower from 1991-1992.)

We also had a few personal achievements on the GTCA team of friends, alumni and family.

Bart DeBacker (alumni): 2nd in age group
Taylor Bronikowski (alumni): 3rd in age group
Victoria Kinard (family): 1st female alumni overall & 1st in age group
Erin Futrell (friend): 3rd in age group
Kathy Swink (friend): 2nd in age group

And of course we couldn't leave the race site without our obligatory jumping photo! Thanks again for making this a great experience.

We'll see you next year for our 3rd win!

That's right folks. The GTCA has been asked to name one of the new boats for the current team. No one wants to row an unnamed boat!

Voting is now closed. Thank you for voting for a new boat name!
