2024 Summer rowing
Learn to Row is an instructional camp that familiarizes new rowers with the riverfont and provides an introduction to the sport and fundamental rowing skills. Participants will learn in the campus classroom, in the state-of-the-art indoor rowing tanks and on the water.
The Foundry is offering camps for both Middle School students (grades rising 6th-8th) and High School students (grades rising 9th-12th). No previous experience is needed. Both camps will be held Monday through Friday from 9am - 12:00pm.
The cost is $350 per session and is due at time of registration.
Row in the morning, sail in the afternoon
Participants can also sign up for a full day session, which includes a Learn to Row session in the morning (Monday - Friday) and a Learn to Sail session in the afternoon (Monday - Thursday). Full-day campers may leave after the learn to row session on Friday morning or stay until 4:30 for additional programming (included) at the Columbus Road facility.
The Foundry will provide transportation between the Columbus Road rowing facility and the Gordon Park East 72nd Street marina for afternoon sailing. Participants will be dismissed after the Learn to Sail portion of the day from the Gordon Park marina. Participants must bring their own lunch.
The cost is $700 per session and is due at time of registration.
Evening sessions for existing rowers
The Foundry's recreation skill development sessions are for students, rising 6th graders through 12th grade, who are interested in working on general skills and having fun rowing. These two-week sessions are for anyone with previous experience in rowing looking for a relaxed option to work with teammates and continue their development during the summer.
From 5-7:30pm Monday-Thursday, participants row in new and changing shells and lineups with an emphasis on smaller boats (conditions permitting).
Recreational rowing is for existing rowers and is NOT part of the learn to row program or included in the full day camp for new rowers and sailors; however, athletes are welcome to sign up for one or more recreational rowing sessions after completing the learn to row week.
