			     2nd CALL FOR VOTES

Proposed Newsgroup: rec.sport.rowing

Type: Unmoderated

Description: Discussion about rowing and erging.

Charter: The purpose of rec.sport.rowing is to provide those who are interested
	in the sport of rowing, with the ability to communicate with other 
	fellow rowers throughout the civilized world.  It would serve as an 
	informant for those who no nothing about the sport, those who want to 
	share the latest rowing/erging information (on races, new equipment or 
	interesting news), and those who just want to share their experiences 
	with everyone else.  It gives everyone the opportunity to enhance their
	knowledge of rowing, keeping fit on the ergometer and other training 
	programs.  If rec.sport.rowing is created, all discussions relating to 
	the following acceptable postings should be posted to rec.sport.rowing,
	and not rec.boats.paddle.  

	Acceptable Postings:
		1. Any questions, comments, results, or suggestions which are 
		   related to either rowing or erging. 
		2. Any postings which may fall into the rowing category must 
		   deal with:  sweep oar rowing, sculling, or coxing. 

Justification of Uniqueness:
	The proposed newsgroup, rec.sport.rowing, would open up a new frontier
	for rowers around the world.  Currently the only newsgroup which rowers
	are only slightly welcome to is rec.boats.paddle.  Therefore, it is 
	necessary for a new newsgroup to come into existence.  Having a 
	separate rowing group allows readers to gain a sense of unity, and 
	gives them the ability to discuss topics which interest everyone in the
	group.
