High Point, NC – High Point Rowing Club is excited to announce a new season of “Masters Rowing” for adults – Summer Session! Rowing will take place on Oak Hollow Lake. The purpose of Masters Rowing is to foster healthy living in a fun team environment for adults through the wonderful sport of rowing.
No prior rowing experience is necessary.
“Masters” is High Point Rowing Club’s adult program for folks ages 21 to “still active.”
Participants may join as individuals or groups through a corporation.
Rowing has taken off as the new spinning and we have established an enthusiastic group of adults wishing to try out this sport,” says club organizer Gene Kininmonth. “Rowing, whether on the Concept2 rower or in the boat at Oak Hollow Lake, is non-impact making it significantly safer from injuries, which is especially appealing to adults.”
The High Point Masters program is modeled on the highly successful adult program in Pittsburgh, which has hundreds of members and an incredible community feel to it. Our High Point rowing community is growing too!
Format: Participants with no prior experience will start with a learn-to-row format on rowing machines and then progress to the real thing in boats. As technique and stamina improve, a more competitive format will be adopted.
