Youth Summer Rowing – What to Expect

Starting the first M, Tu, Wed, or Th after July 4th (whichever comes first that is not a Fri, Sat, or Sun), competitive youth rowers will meet at the boats Monday-Thursday from 8:30-10 AM. They will focus on sculling in singles, doubles and occasionally quads and/or 4+. In choppier waters, they might take out an 8 for added stability. Students should:

• Wear sunscreen
• Bring water (there is a hose to refill)
• Dress appropriately (layers if needed, tighter fitting clothes so not to get caught up in the oars and water shoes or shoes they are not worried about getting wet)

This is an experienced rowing program and rowers must have prior experience and the desire to improve their conditioning and rowing skills.

Youth can choose which dates they would like to attend from 1-4 days/week. Some choose to stay through recreational session from 10-11:30 (this is ok!)

This is for 10-18 years old rowers who want to learn how to row and/or improve their rowing, but need the extra time to grow into the sport.
