Historic First Row

Nine young women made history in High Point today by launching the first Crew for the High Point Rowing Club, the Triad’s first community Rowing team.

The all women crew launched from North Ramp at Oak Hollow Lake on Saturday morning in glorious sunny Fall conditions. A light breeze blowing across the lake proved no challenge for this new team of oarswomen, who sculled their 60 foot long shell effortlessly across the water with grace.

The High Point Rowing Club is now looking forward to recruiting its first crew of male high school students in addition to another 15 female students.

Interested students should email contact@highpointrowing.com for details on how to join the Crew.
