COMMUNITY LEARN TO ROW
Community Learn to Row
Our Program focusses on skill development and safety. By the end of 10 sessions, new rowers should be able to safely navigate the Ottawa River in a single scull with 2 oars. Participants will be part of a small group (max 5 in a class) and receive the guidance of highly skilled coaches. You will receive:
-
Instruction on basic rowing skills, including how to safely launch and independently dock the boat
-
Safety instruction, including navigational patterns, when it is safe to row and what to do in an emergency
-
Tutorial on how to use the ONEC online boat booking system to book your own boat and connect with others to row safely and report damaged equipment
-
Row with us for the rest of the season!
$696 (early season) or $546 (mid season) + HST
