Program Description
Learn to row with us this summer! Our weeklong camps allow participants to get on the water to experience the sport of rowing! Camps are open to male and female individuals currently in or about to enter 4th-12th grades. The camps will be split up by age group, 4th-7th grades and 8th-12th grades. Summer Learn to Row Camps (8th-12th graders): The Summer Learn to Row Camps are for participants who want to learn how to row. Emphasis is on technique refinement, exercise, and the joy of summer rowing. The first day or two will be spent learning on the ergometers (rowing machines) and in the rowing tanks to teach beginner members the terminology, water safety, equipment, and rowing technique. After successful completion of the introduction, the camp will practice together and scrimmage on the water. Summer Introduction to Rowing Camps (4th-7th graders): The Summer Intro to Rowing Camps are for participants who want to learn more about the ever growing sport of rowing and TRRA. Emphasis is on fun and exercise. Participants will be introduced to the sport of rowing through activities during the week. Activities will take place inside and outside. After learning about the proper technique and safety, participants will be encouraged to try rowing on the water in sculling shells and enjoy a great active atmosphere with great coaches. What’s Next? After the summer we encourage all new rowers to join a team! Three Rivers Rowing offers a competitive team during the school year that is open to students from any school!
