Return to Rowing

Rowing is a great lifelong sport: our member’s ages range from 18 to 81!

Whether you rowed in college and are looking to return, or you are new to our area, join us rowing on beautiful Dexter Lake. We row both scull and sweep boats. If you rowed sweep in college, we can teach you how to scull. Private lessons are available to anyone who wants individual coaching or a tune-up before returning to the water. Come join our crew!
