Row-D-O

*** RAIN/WIND DATE is Sunday, August 25***

This is a great way to experience what rowing on the water is like. We will start off on the rowing machine to learn the basic stroke mechanics and then spend some time in an 8-rower boat rowing on the water. From start to finish the course takes about 90 minutes. We are offering several different time slots this morning with a limit of 4 students in each group. Click the Register button to view the available times. Register for ONE available group. Cost is $60 per seat.

Row-D-O is a brief introduction to rowing. Students who wish to continue with rowing must take our more intensive Learn To Row course.

Rowing experience is not required. The class itself is not designed to be physically strenuous, however you must have a reasonable level of fitness to participate. Students MUST be able to:

• swim or tread water for 20 minutes.
• lift 35 – 40 pounds overhead (to help carry the boat from the boathouse to the water and back).
• perform a full squat (to the ground) to get into and out of the boat and place the boat in and take it out of the water.

Rowing is a team sport. There MUST be 8 rowers in the boat, so signing up to participate requires your full commitment to show up on time and participate. REFUNDS will be issued for cancellations 14 days in advance. If you register and are then unable to attend for any reason, please contact us at membership@capefearriverrowingclub.org so that we may find a substitute for your seat.
