What are we doing in response to COVID-19?
Proof of vaccination is no longer required to participate at any level of our programs. We encourage all participants to receive the CDC recommended vaccinations and boosters if they are comfortable doing so. Masks are optional but encouraged. Please visit our COVID Policies page for full information.
Competition?
We will offer local and regional competition opportunities for our athletes as they become available. Competition is open to High School athletes of all skill levels who attend at least 80% of scheduled practices. Participation in competition is optional and will be available during the Fall and Spring seasons.
Need support to row?
The George Pocock Rowing Foundation provides need-based youth rowing scholarships at multiple boathouses throughout the Northwest. Scholarship funds are awarded based on financial need and the participant’s ability to meet attendance and participation expectations.
If awarded a scholarship, athletes must attend 75% of scheduled practices.
Partial and full financial aid packages are available, and funds may be used to cover the cost of registration and regatta fees, swimming instruction, team uniform, and transportation.
Youth of color and those facing socio-economic barriers are encouraged to apply.
