SWIM TEST
All new Masters Members must either sign a Swim Waiver or pass a swim test consisting of: Swim 50 meters, Tread Water for 10 minutes, wear a PFD (lifejacket) while in the water. This is for your safety. Please sign the Swim Waiver only if you are truly able to swim, if not this jeopardizes the safety of all your fellow rowers as well as yourself.

If you already signed the waiver or took the swim test in 2016 you DO NOT need to repeat.
