Middle School Fall Program Info
Program Cost: $907 for program fees and $42 for BIR dues
Additional Cost: $25 for USRowing membership ($20 for existing members) All rowers must have a valid US Rowing Membership (good for 365 days).
The middle school program is designed as a positive and inspiring introduction to the sport of rowing for any and all 7th and 8th graders (coed). We employ a ground-up approach for the brand new athlete that aims to build their knowledge of equipment and safe practices, mechanics of the stroke and the principles of teamwork. For the ‘rowing-curious’, our first week focuses on familiarization and fundamentals: starting on land and then moving into the stable ‘barge’ on the water. Registration will be capped at 20 participants.
2025 Fall Key Dates:
- September 13th – First day of fall season
- September 13th, 11:30am – Parent and Rower Meeting (after the first practice)
- September 28th – Brown Bear Regatta, Bainbridge Island, WA
