For general information on adult rowing at CBRC: Program Overview Page.
Due to restrictions in place for COVID-19 and renovations at Harry Todd Park, our Spring 2021 program will be me modified from the usual format.
1. We will continue rowing out of Bill's Boathouse until June. On-the-water practices will be in small groups of singles and same-family doubles. We will continue following COVID protocols.
2. Practices will be scheduled in advance using the practice sign-up sheet. Depending on numbers, athletes
may be asked to take turns sitting out practices.
3. For Spring Season, practices will be held Tues. and Thurs. at 5:30-7:00 a.m. and Sat. and Sun.
8:00-10:00 a.m. We will probably start earlier when we have more daylight.
4. Tues. and Thurs. practices will continue to be held virtually through February. We will transition to on-site practices on Tues., March 2.
5. Because of the unusual circumstances, athletes can register either for access to all season practices or for the pay-per-practice option.
