Thurmond connects UW's past and future

On April 7th, 2007, the UW will be honoring - including the presentation of letter awards - all women athletes who competed for Washington prior to the 1975-76 season.  This includes the hundreds of women who rowed in the 60's and early 70's during the renaissance of Women's Crew at Washington.  If you know of, or are one of these trailblazers, please contact our Women's historian, Ellen Ernst, at eernst60@aol.com.  More information can be found here - University of Washington To Honor Female Pioneers :: All Husky female student-athletes prior to the 1975-76 season to be recognized with letter awards in a springtime celebration.

Everyone is welcome at the banquet.  It will be a well-deserved celebration - reserve your space today!
