Fun in the Sun Enviromental Camp! NEW THIS YEAR!!!
GENEROUSLY MADE POSSIBLE BY THE GRABLE FOUNDATION!
For those of you who wish to have your children experience the river in a safe and fun manner, we are now offering a free camp for kids. The focus will be on river saftey, kayaking and the river's ecology. Above all, however, it's a great way to learn about the rivers in your backyard! The camp runs Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 1:00-4:00 pm. Snacks are provided, as are life jackets and kayaking equipment. [.pdf]
Free Learn to Row in July
Steel City Rowing Club is hosting a free learn to row, Saturday July 26th at 11:00 am. Come on down to the boathouse and get instruction on the basics of rowing by some of our coaches.
Just show up and row!
Pirate's Game July 11th!
Last year, the whole team (and we mean around fifty people; most of the rowers) went to a baseball game. We all got seats together, and the top balcony was more or less yellow with our shirts. This year, we're going back! On July 11th at 7:05 pm, we have the Pirates vs St. Louis. Tickets are 16$. Families are welcome- this is a great chance for the parents that don't know the team very well to get to know everybody... and as an added bonus, FIREWORKS!. Send an e-mail to Joanne Cope at steelcityrowing@comcast.net and let her know how many you want!
