Windermere Cup Gaining Steam

Crazy to think that one of the signature University of Washington events is just 2 1/2 months away. While that seems like a long time out, here at UW we're already in the planning stages to make the 25th annual Windermere Cup one of the best ever.

This week, several of the key players responsible for putting Windermere Cup together met at Conibear Shellhouse to begin the planning stages of the event. This meant coaches and administrators, along with the team from Windermere Real Estate. There's a lot of logistics that go with hosting a rowing event where more than 40,000-people attend, but it's one of the fun aspects of the Windermere Cup. And the student-athletes certainly appreciate all the community support.

Windermere Cup will be held on May 7th on the Montlake Cut. The teams competing against the UW are still TBA.
