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!
