CRI Receives Impressive Media Coverage
 
Within the past week, CRI has been featured in the Wall Street Journal, US Rowing News and the local Maynard-Beacon Villager.  WSJ's article, "Forever Rowing Upstream" points to CRI's leadership in reaching out to populations typically excluded from rowing such as inner city youth and people with mental and physical disabilities. The US Rowing News article highlighted CRI's impressive 1st and 2nd place finishes in the final of the women's junior at the US Club Championships that took place last week in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. And finally, the Maynard-Beacon featured CRI's Junior Men's Varsity Four finishing 2nd in the nation with a silver medal and the Lightweight Men's Eight finishing 3rd taking bronze, at last month's US Youth Rowing Championship in Lake Harsha, Cincinnati.
