Fullington Farm Boathouse Project
See our plans!
All Hanover town approvals have been received!!! On April 30, the Hanover Board of Selectmen approved a license for the installation of a new dock at Wilson's Landing. Plans for the dock and Fullington Farm were previously approved by the Hanover Zoning and Planning Boards, and the State of New Hampshire. By the end of May we'll be announcing more about the next steps and our eagerness to be ready to row from Wilson's Landing in April 2013.
Join us as we welcome Lebanon, Concord and Tabor for our first home race at the Chieftain this Sat. May 19 at 12:30 pm!
Save the date: End-of-season banquet, June 6th
Parents: Come try rowing on National Learn-to-Row Day, June 2, from 10 am - 12 noon at the Dartmouth Boathouse!
WELCOME! We are the Friends of Hanover Crew, a nonprofit group of parents, coaches, and others who support the Hanover High School crew program through fundraising and other projects. See our full Board list under "About Us," above.
With one in every six Hanover High students now participating in Crew, the time has come to ensure a permanent home for the HHS program and youth rowing.
After much hard work, we are happy to work that all town and state offices have granted the necessary permits for the Fullington Farm property, located on Route 10 north in Hanover, and Wilson's Landing, where a new rowing dock would be installed at the Town-owned boat launch.
We couldn't have done it without the support, letters to the editor, appearances at town meetings, donations, and 513 petition signatures from our committed supporters!! Thank you for showing the Town of Hanover that this project is wanted by so many town residents and families in the Dresden School District. Visit our Fullington Farm Boathouse Project page on the left to learn more about this project.
We are deeply committed to the values of inclusion, teamwork, respect for each other and for the river, and above all, safety. The team and Friends of Hanover Crew also give back to the community, through participation in the annual Prouty fundraiser for the Norris Cotton Cancer Center.
In 2011, FOHC's Prouty team raised over $107,000 for cancer research, winning the top awards for Team Fundraising, Most Team Members, and Most NEW Team Members! We also organized the first annual ROW THE PROUTY option, attracting rowers from as far away as Boston to join the cause.
