  Excellent training for all of our new and upcoming High School Rowers. If you want to make significant performance gains over the summer, this camp is for you! You may sign up for one day a week or two, however in order to get the full training benefit we suggest the rower commits to two days a week for at least 3+ weeks over the summer. 

  Each session is 45 minutes and you will be working with graduating Senior Matt Nichols. Coach Matt will continue to work with SORA over the 2020-2021 season in Strength and Conditioning. All training sessions will be approved and overseen by Coach Terry.

  All rowers will need to bring this waiver with them when they return to the park, every rower and their parents must read and sign all NEW protocol and procedures.

  ALL summer programming is subject to change as we continue to deal with the consequences of Covid-19. We may alter, reschedule or cancel events as need be to adhere to current CDC guidelines.

  Summer Drop-In Program

  Please read this information, including the last section, in it's entirety to ensure this program runs as smoothly as possible. This is a new program this year and it will take everyone's help to make it a success.

  Returning this summer is our Drop-in Program. Do you want to get on the water and put those meters in without a camp experience? This is a great opportunity to work on those small boat skills or get a group of friends together and work on boats of all sizes.

  All HS & MS rowers, including those who attended a Learn to Row Camp, may sign up for theses sessions.  You may sign-up for an entire session, a week at a time or even drop-in for a day of rowing with your friends. There is no coaching involved but you will be accompanied by a launch for safety and able to enjoy a day of rowing.

  Please note that ALL drop in rowers will need to be at the park no later than 8:15 or risk missing their opportunity to participate. No refunds will be processed for late arrivals.

  Cost:

  • Weekly Rate $50 / Week (Monday - Thursday)

  • Daily Rate $15 (Monday - Thursday)

  Additional (very important) Information:

  • You may sign up additional days during the same session by simply creating a new registration and choosing the day(s) you wish to add.

  • In the the event that we do not have enough participants it is possible you may be left to erg or rescheduled for another day.

  • We encourage you to coordinate the days you row with your teammates but we cannot guarantee the boat you will be in. An attempt will be made to boat according to rower preference but the ultimate decision will be up to the staff on hand running camp.

  • Each participant should have athletic clothing, shoes and socks, a soft plastic water bottle, and a non-perishable snack that is packaged in a squirrel-proof bag. (Our squirrels are very creative - and hungry!)
