Youth Rowing:

Where young people find their inner power and sometimes their big voice.

In our Boathouse we build community. Lifting each other up goes hand in hand with the lifting boats as we head to the water.

I encourage questions! So please, take the time to ask.

My expectations are basic:

  • Accept personal responsibility for actions and words.

  • Displays respect for teammates, support staff and coaches.

  • Adhere to a policy of honesty, kindness, understanding and inclusion.

  • Work hard, listen well, support others, and leave electronic devices in a bag!

    In return you will have my knowledge and my adherence to the same expectations. 

    If this is your first step in athletics or switching to a new sport, You are welcome in this Boathouse!
