Fox River Rowing Club

The Crystal Lake Rowing Club website lists a Fox Valley Rowing Club based in Elgin. Does anybody know anything about this?

I've never seen so much as a scull on the Fox River. I would be really surprised to see a rowing crew. Some rivers are very pleasant to row on. Unfortunately, because of what we have done to it, the Fox is more smelly lagoon than river, especially north of Kimball Street. I seriously hesitate to call it a river.

I would heartily endorse the candidacy of anyone running for the legislature if he/she will agree to pursue state funding for removal of all useless dams on the Fox River. The Fox is the most heavily dammed river in Illinois. Removing this cancer should be our priority.
