ONEC is a small and friendly rowing club that specializes in Fitness-for-Life recreational programming and adventure rowing along Ontario's beautiful waterways.
No experience in rowing required but a fondness of the water is recommended :)
We'll give you a boathouse tour, equipment orientation, rowing machine session and some rowing by the ONEC docks.
