HB Crew runs a learn to row program during 2 weeks in the summer. This is a great opportunity for you to learn either rowing (with one oar) or sculling (with two oars). This is a two hour session to either start from scratch with the sport, try out sculling for the first time if you have focused on rowing or just improve on your current level.
