“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
CBC has a group of masters rowers ranging ages 27 to 60+ who row together in team boats 2-3 times per week in the spring, summer, and fall. This group is open to rowers who have completed the learn to row class, experienced rowers, and people looking to get back into rowing after a long hiatus. We attend a few regattas a year, but are primarily focused on increasing fitness and rowing technique.
