Learn To Row is a great chance for High School and Middle School boys and girls to try the sport of rowing for the first time.  The aim of Learn to Row is to get rowers on the water as soon as possible. They will learn about safety, both on and off the water, be able to identify boats and equipment,  and most importantly learn good rowing technique all while having fun on the water.
