YOUTH ROWING

As a middle school or high school student you may join our youth program.

New rowers will find CMI is a welcoming place. We want you to learn to love the sport we love. It takes a few sessions to learn the basics but we will help you along the way.

Experienced rowers will have the opportunity to challenge themselves by improving their rowing and leadership skills on and off the water.
