$35
Safety Launch Gas
Carrying the coaches, emergency equipment and lifejackets for everyone on the water, the saftey launch boats are an integral part of every rowing practice. A $35 contribution covers the operating costs of these launches for two weeks of training on the water.
$250
Coxswain Survival Suit
In case of cold weather, this insulated suit helps protect our coxswains from both the cold and the wet while we row. The suit also provides safety precautions in the event of an emergency that requires the coxswain to swim
$500
Oars
Measuring in at 12 feet and weighing a little over 5 lbs, the oars are fundamental to propelling the boat through the water. New oars will help our program stay competitive at a national level.
$1,000
Concept2 RowErg
The Concept2 Rower is the bread and butter of our fitness regime. While working on our technique is important, improving our cardio and strength is neccesary for our success. The Concept2 Rower is essential to our winter training while it is too cold to be on the water.
$5,000
Racing Shells
Contributions of $5000 or more help our program purchase the racing shells we need to stay competitive at a national level.
