Since March 12, our facilities have been closed due to the coronavirus and the current stay-at-home order issued in Wisconsin. Our Adult and Middle School programming are currently on hold due to the situation. These programs will resume when it is appropriate to continue. Our Youth Learn to Row program is set to begin in the middle of June, and we are hopeful that these sessions will take place as planned. We will continue to assess the ongoing coronavirus situation and may need to adjust the LTR schedule accordingly. We will be creating our Adult Learn to Row schedule based upon projected scheduling in the coming weeks. Our High School team is currently holding a fully planned training regimen online. The staff is continuing to connect with the athletes through video chats, messages, workouts, technical advice, etc.
Please be sure you are signed up for our email list in order to receive updates about our programs. We will be sending out scheduling information as time passes and we gain a better understanding of what the future holds.
Stay safe and stay well!
