The May Bumps 2012 will take place Wednesday 13th to Saturday 16th June. The Getting-On Race will be Friday 8th June.
In addition to submitting entries, crew lists and other content for the programme must be submitted separately, by the same deadline.
The entry fee is £40 per crew. Entry fees and bills for the Easter Term must be paid by the above deadline. Cheques should be payable to Cambridge University Combined Boat Clubs and sent to Tom Grimble, CUCBC Junior Treasurer at Robinson College.
With the May Bumps coming up on 13-16 June, we're looking for umpires for this year's races.
Umpiring is a really fun way to get involved in the Bumps - you get to see and be involved in the action from up close on the towpath, either cycling along with the crews or acting as a static umpire at key points on the course. In addition to this, you will get a free dinner, in May Week, and umpiring will reduce the number of marshals that your club needs to provide.
To help out, you don't need to have umpired before although we do ask that you have rowed or coxed in at least 2 sets of Bumps in the past. There will be a meeting for all umpires where we will explain everything and those that have not umpired before will be paired with a 'senior' during the races. You can both compete and umpire (although obviously don't sign up to umpire a division you're competing in!)
If you have any questions, please get in touch with the committee (committee at cucbc.org). Thanks in advance for your help!
With the May Bumps fast approaching and the academic year almost over, we are starting to think about appointing next year's CUCBC Executive Committee. There are four open positions, all of which are open to any member of the College boat clubs. Involvement with the CUCBC committee is fun and rewarding and a good way of giving something back to College rowing in Cambridge, so if you are enthusiastic about college rowing and would like to get involved on the organisational side, please do consider applying for a position.
While there are a number of defined jobs, responsibilities (particularly organising and umpiring the major races) tend to be shared between committee members who will work together throughout the year.
If you wish to run for any of these positions, please send a brief manifesto outlining your experience and what you will bring to the position to Dan Wilkins, CUCBC Honorary Secretary (dan at cucbc.org), by Sunday 3rd June. I also strongly recommend getting involved in umpiring this year’s May Bumps (details of which to follow shortly).
Please do not hesitate to get in touch if you would like to know more.
The Small Boats Regatta 2012 took place Monday 23rd - Wednesday 25th April.
The final results are now available. Congratulations to this year's winners.
