Program Details
Come join ONEC for some Learn to Row sessions! ONEC is a small and friendly rowing club that specializes in Fitness-for-Life recreational programming and adventure rowing along Ontario's beautiful waterways.
​
No experience in rowing required but a fondness of the water is recommended :)
​
We'll head out in our stable rowing boats that are ideal for learning the sport of Crew Rowing (we'll be rowing in Quads which have four rowers and 1 coxswain who helps to steer the boat). We'll travel along the beautiful Ottawa River past our historical boathouse, Capital landmarks and forested shoreline.
​
Join our Coaches in a safe, inclusive and fun environment. All instructors are Safe Sport trained. Safe Sport: Anyone involved in sport should be able to thrive and perform at their best without fear of abuse, neglect or other maltreatment.
​
All participants must wear appropriate clothing and be prepared to get wet. ​Everyone receiving rowing instruction must know how to swim and be in good physical shape.
