Learn to Row Groups at Nathan Benderson Park 

• A great intro to the sport and the team of adults you could join if you enjoy! We will get you into a boat and onto an erg to learn proper rowing technique and get you into the swing of things! 
  • First Saturday is an Intro Day where we make sure you are comfortable to show up and start getting on the water.
  • Practice Days during the week follow our Adult Team practice schedule but we will have dedicated coaches to work with the learn to row group.
  • Two weeks of practice include 3 mornings for both weeks (Monday, Wednesday, Thursday)
  • You do NOT have to make every practice.
  • Great bonding experience while learning a new skill and gaining some great fitness!
  • Weekday practices will run 6:30 am - 9:00 am with the flexibility to allow you to leave early if your schedule requires that.
