About

We are gearing up for our biggest fundraiser of the season! This is a fun event for our rowers and coxswains, when they team up to race against each other on erg/rowing machines. Ergs are used during cold months and days when the weather does not allow rowing practice on the water, and are key to workouts and fitness preparation.

What I’m Raising Money For

Each year, our team uses funds to attend multiple local regattas and compete with other high school teams, maintain and purchase new equipment, and generally keep our boats and team afloat! This year in particular we need the help, as we are needing to replace and purchase a new boat for the team.

Why You Should Give

Crew is a unique experience for high schools students that teaches teamwork, leadership and life skills. It is also an expensive sport. All of our funds come from athlete fees, fundraisers and donations. Crew receives NO FINANCIAL SUPPORT from the school or county because it is designated as a "club" sport, although it is a varsity sport and follows state and county rules and regulations as required.
