Rowing event set on Feb. 24
On Feb. 24, the Los Gatos Rowing Club will hold a fundraiser to assist high school athletes. The 7th Annual Row-A-Thon will take place from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. in the Los Gatos Town Plaza. Teams of rowers will use rowing machines to "travel" the distance from Los Gatos to Portland, Ore.

Last year, the event snagged $45,000, which was used for equipment, boats and scholarships. For more information, contact Nancy Minor at 408.356.9314.
