WE DID IT!!!!

As if it were a Christmas gift to all of us at NBCR and to the people of the Greater New Bedford community, we've matched the challenge grant!!! Yes, it's true - we had 2 people step up and close out the last $5,000 of the match!! They wish to remain anonymous otherwise I would be hailing their names to the heavens. Both have supported NBCR in the past, to boot.

All of the people that have given a donation to NBCR in any amount are how we made this happen. Every single bit helps and it all added up to reach our goal. THANK YOU to all of you that have supported NBCR whether financially or otherwise. It still amazes me the amount of support we've gotten in just 6 months.

I'm extremely excited for what's to come and now that we've secured $25,000 for next year (thanks to the match), we can move forward planning the spring and summer seasons. There are LOTS of exciting things in the works, so believe me, you want to be a part of this. New location, new docks, new races, new rowers, new coaches, maybe even some new equipment! The sky is the limit for us as long as we have the support of those that have gotten us this far. You are all fantastic!!!!!!
