Can I get a Hoorah?

Concord Crew provides high school students with the opportunity to experience all the sport of rowing has to offer -- competition, team building, fitness, community service and, yes, fun. We are young athletes from the greater Concord, New Hampshire, area. We have a brand new boathouse on the Merrimack River, a fleet of top notch racing shells, an experienced coaching staff, and incredible support from the parents and friends of Concord Crew. We attend several fall races each year (usually including the Textile River Regatta, the NH Championships and the Head of the Fish), a full slate of spring races (including the Crimson Cup, the Sleigh Cup in Hanover, and the Saratoga Invitational), we travel to South Carolina to train in February, we run a youth summer learn-to-row program, and organize winter conditioning. We accept everyone. All rowers participate in each practice and every race. There is no "bench" at Concord Crew where we regularly exceed 100 athletes. HOORAH!!
