Free rowing for Ukrainian refugees
We enjoy the most beautiful rowing in the fall, and would like to share this experience with refugees from Ukraine. Come and row with us and discover how much fun the sport of rowing is, and meet our local community.
Lessons can be scheduled for groups of up to 12 people at time, youth (12yrs up) and adults are all welcome. This is a great family experience to share. All equipment is provided, and after the initial lessons you are welcome to continue to row until mid-October at no cost.
