Jamestown, NC – High Point Rowing Club, the Triad’s only community rowing team will open a new indoor rowing center for winter training in Jamestown in early December.
The Jamestown Indoor Rowing Studio, a 3,000 square foot fitness facility at 124-C Wade Street, will also include two administrative offices for the coaching staff and a storage area for the team’s boating equipment. The Club’s youth program will begin training in the facility on December 1 and the adult ‘Masters’ team will commence on December 2.
“This is an exciting new addition to our rowing activities,” said club director Gene Kininmonth. “We looked at several locations in High Point but concluded that Jamestown is most central for our rowers who come from across the Triad.”
High Point Rowing Club was founded in 2012 to bring the sport of rowing to the Triad in a high energy, team format for people of all ages. According to the team’s Masters Coach Allie Davis, a graduate of UNC Chapel Hill and former member of her college’s varsity rowing program, the club takes a team approach to healthy living.
“Working out on your own is challenging for even the most dedicated individual,” said Davis. “Here we train together as a team and race together and that makes it fun and worth returning to each week.”.
The club is currently accepting new members for both the youth and masters winter indoor season. For more information on the club and its programs email director Gene Kininmonth at contact@highpointrowing.com or call (336) 257-9009.
