Program 1: Learn to Row – Youth and Adults
Participants will be taught to scull by experienced coaches. This is a great introduction to a sport that can be enjoyed by any age, both as an individual or a member of a team. Absolutely no rowing experience required to participate. In sculling the rower uses 2 oars and is done in boats of one (single), two (double) or four (quad) rowers. You will learn to row in a stable, flat bottom boat called a trainer or tub to begin with. Those who get the hang of it may move to a team boat by the end of the week.
