About the Event

Weekly rowing sessions would be offered to newcomers to help them learn the sport of rowing as well as assist them to integrate into Canadian culture and practice their English and French language skills. Each Wednesday from June 26 – Aug 28th, a new cohort of 8 participants will start the multi-session program. Over the course of the summer, we intend to introduce the sport of rowing to 72 participants in association with our community partners.
