Going to Sarasota Florida!

Help Send Our Para Doubles to Youth Nationals!
Coventry Lake Community Rowing is proud to announce that we have two incredible Para Double teams heading to the USRowing Youth Nationals in Sarasota, Florida—and we need your help to get them there!
This is a huge milestone for our athletes, and your support will help cover travel, lodging, equipment transportation, and regatta fees to make it all possible.
Why This Matters:
Para rowing creates space for athletes with physical and visual impairments to thrive in a challenging, team-driven sport. These athletes aren’t just showing up—they’re excelling, inspiring others, and proving what’s possible with the right support.
With your help, we can send Megumi, Scout, John, and Sobie to Sarasota to represent Coventry Lake Community Rowing—and the broader Para community—on the national stage.
What Your Support Covers:
  • Flights & transportation
  • Hotel accommodations
  • Boat Travel
  • Race entry fees
This journey isn’t just about medals—it’s about empowering athletes, celebrating inclusivity, and showing the country what strength and community look like.
Every stroke counts—so does every donation.
Please share this campaign with friends, family, and fellow rowing supporters!
With gratitude,
Coventry Lake Community Rowing
Meet Our Boats:
‍♀️ Boat 1: Sobie & John
Sobie and John are returning to Youth Nationals to defend their championship title, this time in a newly introduced Para event. And, they will be rowing our new Hudson 2x awarded by The Hartford Foundation for Public Giving! Sobie is almost 100% sight-impaired and has shown remarkable resilience in the boat while John takes the lead guiding her down the course. Together, they’ve trained with focus and heart—and they’re ready to raise the bar once again!
‍♂️ Boat 2: Scout & Megumi
This is a special debut for Scout and Megumi, who are competing at Youth Nationals for the very first time. Scout is 100% sight-impaired, and together with Megumi, they’ve formed a powerful bond built on trust, coordination, and perseverance. They represent the best of what Para rowing is all about.
