What are your Summit takeaways?
WOW. What a day we had! Thank you to all who showed up, engaged, and asked good questions today! And the Ohio Dragon Dream Team's roller coaster impression was one of my favorite moments too. High fives ladies, you rocked it! I'd love to know your biggest takeaways from today's sessions. I personally loved seeing the connections being made and the conversations taking place... and the validation that came out of those. SO many of you are doing so much RIGHT. I also loved Jim's Keynote and hearing about his philosophies and approaches to coaching. In the middle of my own documentation project, his words were especially apropos for that effort, and inspired me to make it even more impactful. Many of you mentioned that @Anne Baker's session was amazing... and I'm so glad to hear that. I'll be catching the replay tomorrow night, when my hips will REALLY be grateful for it. Your turn... what were some of your "ahas" from the day? #nov26summit

Day 1 replays are up in the classroom.
Each replay is in the appropriate "module" in the Nov 7, 2026 Summit "course" in the classroom. Tomorrow we're diving deeper into building out our training plans, how to coach crews of different levels, how to structure practices and more. You'll leave with a workable outline for the winter and racing seasons, and have access to a follow-up Q+A/Refinement sesion in a few weeks. If you haven't signed up, there's still room if you'd like to join us. Register here. . . . Want to access today's replays but didn't get a ticket? You can do that AND sign up for tomorrow's session in one place here. nov26summit
L1S Homework: On-water interactions with other boaters
If you practice where other boaters (especially motor boaters) are present, make sure you know what the relevant rules of the waterways are. How do you think others with whom you share your waterway(s) perceive dragon boats (i.e. as welcome, an annoyance, etc.)? How could the relationship between dragon boaters and other types of recreational boaters be improved? #level1

Off season gym arrangements
Does anyone have partnerships with local gyms to arrange some sort of group discount for training in the off season?
Team communication
What do you use for your team chat? My team uses What’s App. We use it mostly for informal chat and pictures. What do you love and dislike about your chat program? What do you wish you had to communicate with your team?
