Navy Crew

Navy Crew Newsletter is an information and fundraising hub for the United States Naval Academy rowing community, connecting rowers, alumni, parents, and friends. It shares news about Navy’s heavyweight, lightweight, and women’s crews, along with stories celebrating the people and traditions behind the program. The site promotes alumni gatherings such as the annual Pull for Navy Banquet and recognizes contributors through the Craig Thrasher Service to Rowing Award.

A central focus is supporting the Navy Crew Excellence Fund, which helps provide racing shells, oars, training equipment, coaching support, and travel opportunities. Visitors can find donation information and guidance for directing gifts to Crew through the USNA Alumni Foundation. The site also offers an email sign-up, an online gear store, newsletter archives, and links to Navy sports resources. By combining program updates, event information, community recognition, and ways to contribute, Navy Crew Newsletter helps sustain connections across generations and support the continued development and competitiveness of Navy rowing.
