Maritime Rowing Club announces its summer sessions of rowing, and learn-to-row sessions for high school, middle school, and adults. There is a competitive program for junior rowers, as well as different levels of training to others from the beginner to the advanced rower returning to the sport. The internationally well-known coaching staff offers an opportunity for all levels to become competitive and develop their potential with solid rowing skills and team fundamentals.
