Learn to row with BCR junior rowers, college-bound alumni athletes, and BCR coaches. During your week at BCR, you will spend time on the water learning the skills necessary to become a rower. Athletes will spend time on land learning boat handling and rowing technique, rowing on the erg (rowing machine), and participating in land-based workouts designed to challenge your fitness. Each week will end in camp-wide racing.

Open to athletes in 6-12th grade. Instruction will take place in team boats. Rowers will learn the foundations of the stroke needed to transition to the middle and high school novice teams at BCR in the fall.
