WHO CAN ROW?

Our club includes men and women ranging in age from 18 to 85. Many of our members are in mid-life, and most have learned to row in recent years.

Beginners. To row, you should have the capacity for moderate exercise and reasonable swimming skills. Beginning rowing does not challenge one's physical capacities; it takes a considerable amount of time in boats to master the technique well enough to get a significant workout.




Novices, Intermediate and Experts. Intermediate and advanced coaching is available each season to members in good standing and for an additional fee. With approval from the board, intermediate and expert rowers may purchase a boathouse key for rowing at non-supervised rows. People with their own boats may rent space in the boathouse, storing up to three personal boats for a price per boat set by the club on a yearly basis.
