“Fourteen years ago, a friend and I took a learn to row class on a whim. Today, rowing has become a significant part of our fitness regime. Nothing is more beautiful than rowing on Cayuga Lake at sunrise." – Jess McGee, Masters Rower
SUMMER 2022 CLASSES:
Details are subject to change as we near the summer and finalize staffing and equipment.
Adult Learn to Row
CBC offers learn-to-row classes during the summer for adults over 18 years of age. This program is a fun introduction to the sport of rowing and covers all aspects, including equipment, water safety, rowing technique, and boat handling. The focus of learn to row is developing skills to become a life long rower.
The programs focus on small sculling boats with each rower using two oars. Rowers will learn the basics in stable training individual boats, which we call singles. As rowers get comfortable with rowing, they will progress up to a speedy, racing single. Sculling programs teach rowers to be independent so they can eventually take a boat out on their own after they pass the captain's test. Rowers typically need to enroll in multiple classes to become proficient enough to pass the captain's test.
Fee: TBD typically $200-300 per session
Schedule:
Classes are in three week sessions on weekday evenings Monday/Wednesday or Tuesday/Thursday from 6-8 pm.
Starts July 5th through August 21st
