Learn to Row at Overpeck Lake

Learn to Row at Overpeck Lake with the New York Rowing Association. We will provide athletes ages 12-18 the opportunity to learn the basics of rowing over the course of 10 hours of instruction.  The goal is to provide a safe and fun environment where novices can learn about the basics of rowing. Participates will learn the essentials of rowing terminology, how to use the rowing equipment, safety rules and precautions, as well as the fundamentals of the rowing stroke and boat mechanics.  
Groups of four or five will be formed based on start date and you will stay with that group for the duration of the program.   Participants are encouraged to sign up for multiple sessions.  After the completion of one session  a you will have the opportunity to move into different boats based on progress.

COVID -19 Update

Participants MUST:

  • Be between the ages 12-18.
  • Be able to swim.
  • Come attired appropriately in fitted clothing. T-shirts with tight arm holes and close fitted shorts, keeping in mind that the seats in the boat slide back and forth on a track so loose clothing can get caught and rip.
  • Bring their own bottled water.  We would recommend 2-3 bottles per participant.
  • Bring sunscreen/hat to protect against the sun.  Majority of the training will take place on the water with no available shade.

Cancellation Policy:

  • There is no refund if we have to cancel a session due to weather, if there are multiple cancellations we will setup weekend days or days in the following week that are most convenient for the rowers.​​
  • Weather decisions are often made on site to maximize our chances of practicing.  In the event cancellation is clear, email and texts notifications will go out to athletes.
