About
West Potomac High School Crew has been a part of the Fort Hunt/Mount Vernon community for the past 50 years (previously as Fort Hunt H.S. Crew). Our club is home to 100+ dedicated athletes, freshmen through seniors. Many of our athletes row through college and into adulthood. West Potomac Crew has two seasons: Winter Conditioning which is an intensive preparation program for all rowers and the Spring competitive season. This year, West Potomac Crew will be practicing out of Ft. Belvoir.
What I’m Raising Money For
West Potomac Crew is one over 40 rowing teams in the metropolitan Washington, DC area. Money raised via fundraisers goes towards regattas, equipment maintenance, and more.
Why You Should Give
Although it is a varsity sport, West Potomac Crew receives NO financial support from the school or county because we are a “club” sport. All our funds are raised through athlete fees, fundraisers and donations.

Help Support the West Potomac HS Crew Team!
Update from Leena Dechoretz
Dear Friends and Family, I hope this email finds you well! I'm reaching out to share an exciting opportunity to support a cause that means a lot to me— West Potomac Crew Team. As you may know, crew is a unique and challenging sport that requires not only dedication from the athletes but also significant financial support to sustain our team. Unlike many other sports, the crew team is not funded by the school, so we rely entirely on fundraising efforts to cover costs such as equipment, regatta fees, transportation, and coaching. This year, I’ve set a personal fundraising goal to help ensure the team has the resources we need to have a successful season. Your contribution—no matter the amount—will go directly toward keeping our program afloat (pun intended!). Every little bit helps, whether it’s $10, $25, or more. If you’re unable to donate, sharing this email with others who might be interested in supporting us would also mean the world. Thank you so much for considering supporting me and my teammates. Your encouragement and generosity make such a difference! Let’s row together toward an incredible season! With gratitude,

Help me fundraise for Crew
Update from nico_deb
Hello! I’m writing because the WPHS Crew team requires donations for the new year. If you can donate, please do! 35$ is a perfect number, but anything under or above will still be appreciated. Thank you for your time and (hopefully) your money!

Family and Friends, Hello there! I’m raising money for crew. The school doesn’t support the crew team so we have to raise the money on our own so we can compete in races.

Colten's Crew/Rowing Annual Fundraiser!
Update from Colten Wright
It's CREW Time! If you support teens staying off the streets and, instead, rowing in cold water, getting blisters from oars, and puking from rowing a 2k for time, WE NEED YOU! 😄 Colten would LOVE your Support for his upcoming Ergathon Rowing Fundraiser... Yay to tiny, unbalanced boats powered by teenagers!
