Overview
Fees The fee per rower is $70.00. This fee covers insurance costs and membership with the SRC and the Canadian Rowing Association. Completed Learn to Row application forms (downloadable from this site or you can get from your coach) and total fees are due one week before the LTR begins. For insurance reasons, no one is allowed on the water until monies and registration forms have been submitted. Ergometers (Rowing Machines) Each participating high school will be loaned, free of charge, one of the SRC ergs for the month of April, up to and including the Learn to Row (LTR) in May. The ergs are then returned to the boathouse to be used at Learn to Row sessions. Dry land sessions Dryland sessions will take place on May 6th at the SRC boathouse on Elizabeth St. from 4:00 - 6:00pm. Novice rowers (those who have not done a LTR before) MUST attend. This session covers the basics of rowing including safety, anatomy of the boat, and rowing technique. On water sessions The on-water sessions takes place the morning after the dry land training on Saturday May 7th . ALL schools will be required to attend one of the two on-water teaching sessions. The first session is scheduled from 8:00 - 9:30am with the second session running from 9:30 - 11:00am. Participants will wear a "fanny pack" type flotation device on their waists during the on-water instruction. Regular training will commence on May 9th and end on June 10th . Students are encouraged to invite family members to stay and watch practices and/or take pictures for submission to the Club's website. Rowing Schedule
Note: Schools may row other days, including weekends, as long as there is a club and high school approved coach present AND a certified safety boat person operating the accompanying safety boat. Spares
Every school must organize their own spares for practice(s). Spares must be someone in good standing with the SRC, RowOntario and RowCanada. In the event you cannot find a spare from your school contact one of the other schools to see if someone from their crew is able to replace you. High School Program Coordinator
