Team Memo
Youth Summer Rowing Program
June 15 to July 18
Freedom Rowers is offering a youth summer rowing program coached by
John Leekley, Head Men’s Rowing Coach of Washington College.
There will be coaching for experienced rowers and a learn-to-row program.
We will be rowing Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings
starting around 5:45 p.m. We will finalize a time once we have input
from rowers interested in the program. You will be expected to work
out two other days of the week on your own. Workout suggestions will
be provided.
We will participate in at least two regattas: Capital Sprints in Washington,
D.C. on July 11 and the Philadelphia Youth
Regatta July 18.
If you cannot make all of the practice sessions because of summer
travel, you will be given a work out routine to do on your own.
Please let us know if you are interested in attending as soon as possible.
We are requesting a donation to the team of $350 as funding to pay
for coaching, regattas, travel, fuel and other expenses. If you are
interested but not able to donate, please contact us. There are a
few members of the community who have offered to cover the costs for
rowers who are in need of financial assistance. There is some paperwork
that will need to be filled out and submitted prior to the beginning
of the season.
There will be a mandatory parents meeting after practice on June
15.
This is a great opportunity for Freedom Rowers. If you are not able
to attend but interested in other rowing camps please check out www.row2k.com,

There are lots of options available for one or two week camps.
If you have any questions, please contact us at 410-829-1691.
