Description of Piece:
In my scene you see my rowing team just after we had crossed the finish line and could
finally relax after competing in the Head of the Charles boat race in Boston. We came
in 3rd, but posted our fastest time as a team so it was the highlight of the year for us.
I chose this scene because I feel that it reflects a huge part of my life. Rowing is
something I really enjoy doing.
The values I am illustrating are the importance of being on a team and working hard
together to achieve results.
