Recreational Program
Our rec program is intended for youth participants with little or no prior rowing experience. This program will teach the basics of both sweep (one oar) and sculling (two oars) rowing in team boats.
This is a great way to try out the sport of rowing and see if it is for you!
After completing the rec program, rowers are welcome to participate in our summer camps and join our competitive program the following semester.
