April 20th membership meeting
Updates:
The board agreed on some baseline social media policies for our Instagram, which are down below. The goal is to promote what our committees are doing and the sport as whole - this includes highlighting lightweight rowing, D3 rowing, new varsity programs, etc. If you have ideas on ways we can do this, reach out to Kayleigh.
Sharing livestreams as we see them posted. The easiest way to ensure that your races are promoted via the @ircacoaches account is to email Kayleigh the link prior to race day.
Sharing poll results. Hopefully you saw the Week 1 polls that the A&P committee released on Wednesday - if not, they’re saved as a highlight. As the committee releases the polls, we’ll share them in a similar format on Wednesday mornings through the end of the season.
Only sharing individual team photos and results from championship regattas. To keep things simple we’ll only share/re-post photos and results from the championship regattas - this includes Sprints, IRAs, Dad Vails, and conference championships like Pac 12s, MARC, NESCAC, etc.
Reminders:
Greg is working with the alumni leaders group to set up our next call, which will tentatively be the week of May 10th-14th. More details to come as we finalize the details. If your alumni who are interested in attending - regardless of whether you have an established alumni group or not - please send Kayleigh their contact info so they can be included in the invite.
