LRC lesson schedule
Welcome
to the Louisville
Rowing Club! Come on in and discover why rowing is one of
the fastest-growing sports around. The
LRC includes members of all skill levels who enjoy rowing
sweep (teams in which members row one oar each) and sculling
(usually individuals in two-oared boats).

The LRC offers lessons
in 2003 from June through September. We also have an active
program for students from several high schools, as well as Adaptive
Rowing for people with disabilities. We row a variety of club
boats -- singles, doubles, fours, eights, and pairs -- out of
two boathouses along the Ohio River.
|
 Because
rowing uses all the major muscle groups, it provides a superb workout.
It also offers a
chance to form some great friendships. Rowers get to know the Ohio
in a whole new way: early morning mist rising off the water, the
splash of oars on a crisp autumn afternoon, a heron flapping lazily
by, and at dusk, the red yolk of sun dipping behind a latticework
of bridges. |
"It's
a perfect combination of the movement within the boat, the
oars stroking through the water, the bodies swinging back
and forth, and you just feel lifted out of yourself. It's
truly a transcendental moment, and it's what makes rowers
fanatical about their sport."
