Introduction to Sculling / summer 2024

The New Haven Rowing Club is excited to offer two learn-to-scull sessions this summer for adults. Participants learn the basics of sculling while rowing in quads, doubles, and singles on the beautiful Housatonic River. Each session is led by coach Margaret Gordon and includes two classes per week for a total of 10 classes.

Session I: May 28–June 27
Tuesday and Thursday evenings 6:00–7:30 pm

Session II: July 9–August 8

All participants must submit an application form and a swim test certification before the first class. The cost for each 5-week session is $400. Space is limited. For more information and a tour of the boathouse with coaches and current members, join us for Open House mornings on Saturday, May 4, or Saturday, May 18, from 10:00 am to noon.
