Youth Rowing Summer Camps for 2026 are open for registration!
The goals of the OAR middle and high school summer camps are to develop skills, provide fun experiences on the water, build confidence, and foster a love for the sport. New rowers learn the basics of the sport in a fun, safe environment, Returning athletes have an opportunity to work on their skills between Spring and Fall racing seasons and to have fun out on the water with their teammates.
All youth will have the opportunity to learn both sweep rowing (with 1 oar) and scull rowing (2 oars).
