High School Learn-to-Row Camp

New to rowing? You’re in the right place.

Ready to try something new this summer? Our High School Learn-to-Row Camp is a five-day beginner program designed to get you on the water fast—and ahead of the curve for the fall season.

Whether you’re a rising freshman, sophomore, junior, or senior, you’ll learn the fundamentals of rowing from experienced coaches while building confidence, fitness, and teamwork. By the end of the week, you won’t just understand the sport—you’ll be ready to step onto the High School Team with a serious advantage.

This is where it starts. Most of our championship-winning athletes began right here. It’s more than just a week on the water—it’s your first step toward becoming part of a competitive, driven, and successful team.
