Hi everyone,
As I suspected, USRowing miscalculated our reimbursement amount. Long story short, they paid for Bruce's IBK hotel room/food. Currently, USRowing is cutting each of us a check for $1,139.02.
If you care to see the math:
Total Amount Fundraised Through the NRF: $25,031.00
Total IBK Bill (8 rowers + 1 coxswain + 1 coach): $10,800 EUR =
$14,779.80 USD (this has already been wired by USRowing to IBK. Exchange rate is a tad bit high, but nothing we can do really to control that).
Subtract the two numbers, and divide by 9, and you will find that you get $1,139.02. What USRowing failed to recognize is that our IBK bill included Bruce's stay as well. Since USRowing has already cut the checks and closed
our account (I just spoke with Liz on the phone), it is too late for Bruce to mail USRowing a single check for his portion of the IBK stay and recalculate our reimbursement amounts. Therefore, I need everyone
to reply back to me with their mailing address so that I can contact Bruce to cut us each a check (for ~$150 USD).
Please get me this information ASAP. I'd like to get this squared away before HOCR weekend.
