The boathouse, for use by the University's men's and women's crew teams, includes two boat bays to house racing shells; locker rooms; kitchen; and indoor and outdoor common areas, supporting the athletes that train and race there. The land, on the St. Lawrence River, is owned by the New York Power Authority, which is leasing it to the University; in addition to the new boathouse facility, a new floating dock has also been constructed. Special recognition was given at the dedication to Allan and Catherine Newell, of Hammond, and Michael and Virginia Ranger, of Morristown, New Jersey, whose gifts made possible the construction of the new facilities. Allan Newell and Michael Ranger are University trustees. Those present for the dedication included, from left, Waddington Town Supervisor William Dalton; St. Lawrence Director of Athletics Margaret Strait; New York Power Authority Senior Community Relations Representative Carol Simpson; and University President Daniel F.
