Learn To Row

Introduction


​The Nicomekl Learn to Row (LTR) Program is designed for people who have never rowed before and individuals that have been away from the sport for a while and want to refresh their rowing technique.  Our experienced coaches will teach rowing and boat handling skills over 6 classes.  At the end of the program, students will have a good understanding of the basic sculling rowing stroke, river patterns and rowing jargon. 
Come appreciate the beauty of the scenic Nicomekl River while learning how to Row!

The 2023 LTR season has come to a close. Those interested in the 2024 LTR season, please complete the waitlist registration form. Everyone on the waitlist will be notified by March 2024 with details of the 2024 Learn to Row Program​.
