Rising 6-11 Graders (6th graders must be 12 years old), this is the perfect time to try rowing as these camps are centered around you! Just like you saw in Boys in the Boat, rowing is the ultimate team sport! We will teach you the fundamentals of rowing and about our program. Whether you are looking for a team sport or to stay in shape during your off season, come give rowing a try this summer. Current CYR athletes will be there helping our new athlete's how to row and we will have awesome alumni helping coach. Why not give this Olympic sport a try?
This summer we will hold our first camp as middle schoolers only. Middle schoolers can participate in the remaining camps if you cannot make the first dates but we encourage them to come to the first camp so they are surrounded by athletes their age.
