Although I cannot boast of being a part of this club, I have seen them in the Buckley Cove area putting boats in the water with a team of rowers heading out to the Delta for a training session. They offer an Intro to Rowing Class every year; maybe you’d like to see if this is the kind of action you thrive to stay fit! This is the only rowing club in the valley that offers programs for all ages! Intro to Rowing: The Complete Course Spring/Summer 2010 This class is for those who are serious about becoming oarswomen and oarsmen. Instruction is designed to bring the beginner all the way to strong proficiency in both sweep rowing and sculling. At the end of this course, most participants go on to join SRC as either recreational and/or as competitive crew rowers. For assuring safety and for good learning of foundational skills, we suggest people take this course only if they can participate in at least 90% of the first 25 – 30 hours of class. After that, the basic skills are learned and although continuous attendance is encouraged, it is anticipated that some practices will be missed during this four-month period.
