On Sunday, September 29, a number of CBC masters rowers traveled to Putney Vermont to compete in the annual Green Mountain Head Regatta. Several of them did quite well! Kim McKnight posted an impressive second place finish in the Men's 1x 65-74 category, with a time only eight seconds behind Gevvie Stone's dad Gregg. Marty van der Heide and Tim Willsallen took home some apples (3rd) in the Men's 2x 100+ category. Gill Haines-Sharpe also finished well, posting the fifth fastest time in a very fast field in the Women's 1x 55-64 category. Held three weeks before the Head of the Charles, the Green Mountain attracts rowers from all over New England. It is a 5k out and back course on the Connecticut River with a challenging spin around two buoys at the half way point. For a race that manages to cultivate an enduring atmosphere of unpretentiousness (singles and doubles only, the parking lot is a corn field, and the prizes are maple syrup for first place, apple cider for second, and a bag of apples for third), the competition is tremendously steep.

Many thanks approving towards the great data. 7/27/2022 01:31:26 am
For one to two months, maintain watering the stump every few days to keep it wet with the saltwater solution, encouraging absorption and the growth of fungus that might quicken the stump's disintegration. A potassium nitrate fertilizer can also be used to help the fungus grow more successfully. 6/15/2023 02:45:20 am
Helpful information. Lucky me I found your site by accident, and I’m stunned why this accident didn’t took place earlier! I bookmarked it. 1/17/2024 06:18:18 am
Congratulations to the CBC masters rowers on their successful performance at the Green Mountain Head Regatta! Wishing them continued success as they approach the Head of the Charles. 4/10/2024 12:44:07 am
Continue to water the stump every few days with the saltwater solution for one to two months to keep it moist, promoting absorption and fostering the growth of fungus that may accelerate the stump's decomposition. Additionally, using potassium nitrate fertilizer can aid in the fungus's more successful growth. Leave a Reply. |
