The Learn To Row (LTR), classes are designed

Basic requirement are:
Rowers must be able to swim, tread water, be comfortable in the river and capable of carrying 30lbs.
Rowing can be a strenuous activity and you

the dock to the rowing shell unassisted (sit in the boat, and
get out), then you may not be able to participate in this
activity. You will be required to master the art of
carrying your equipment to the water.

The Sculling LTR session will take about 12
hours of instruction and accompanied rowing. A session
consists of 6 - 2hr classes or a combination of periods
amounting to 12 hrs.

Adjustments may be necessary due to weather.

LTR Sculling training will be scheduled
whenever we have 4 registered individuals.

Constraints will be the availability of
instructor time and weather issues.

row with a "buddy" until the rowers achieve sufficient
proficiency to row on their own.
