  High School 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 High School 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 rowers may sign up for any camp at a reduced fee.  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:

  • This program is only open to rowers who were members of the club during the 2019-2020 season. You must use your email address that is associated with your rower account to register. If your email address isn't working or you have any other issues signing up, please contact support@soracrew.com.

  • 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!)

  • 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!)

  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.

  Our 1 week High School program is designed primarily for the new beginner rower, who will be in 9th to 12th grade. This is a 1 week intensive program to introduce rowing to those that are interested in rowing with our High School competitive team. We will explore the basics of rowing and rowing technique, how to responsibly handle the equipment (boats and oars), and spend time on the water to apply what they learned on land. Additionally, these campers participate in land-based training for overall fitness.
