FAQs
1. How do I become a member?
Q: What is the first thing in joining LBRA?
A: If you are new to rowing, then it is recommended that you take the beginning lessons. These lessons are priced at $150 for group lessons and $250 for private lessons for a set of 5 lessons. These lessons will determine if you want to continue rowing(no point in paying for membership if rowing is not for you), if so, you will be given a membership application to be fill out, return it with the membership fee and you will receive a electronic key and have full membership rights as explained to you by the Boat Captain.
2. How can I get information posted on the website?
Contact our editor-in-chief, Liza Luna.
3. When I try to print Acrobat (pdf) forms, I only get blank
pages or pages with nothing but a header and footer.
When Acrobat Reader loads into your browser, it requires that you press the
print button for Acrobat, not for your browser. So find the small
black and white printer button in the upper left (closest to the content)
and use that. Do not use your browser’s menu, or the large printer
button associated with it (usually in the middle or upper right of the
screen).
4. When I try to click and type in a form field in your
electronic forms, Acrobat won’t allow me to. I can only click on the
check boxes with any success.
The forms were created with Acrobat 5.0, so you will need Acrobat
Reader 5.0 or higher to use all the features in those forms. This
download is free at
Acrobat’s website, but it is between 9 and 13 MB, so over a dial-up 56K
connection that can take about 30 minutes.

Why isn’t rowing in the news more often? Good question!
We need to notify the press in advance of events and submit timely stories to the LA Times,
the OC Register, the Press Telegram and the Grunion Gazette among others.
If you would like to become our press secretary, we would welcome the help!
