NORWOOD -- Grateful Oars Rowing Club, Norwood Lake, will host a free public open house and demonstration of rowing from 9 to 11 a.m. Saturday, June 9 at Norwood Beach on Lakeshore Drive.
People are invited to meet club members, tour the boathouse, learn about rowing in a crew boat, and try rowing with experienced helpers.
Rowing is a full-body life sport that can be learned and enjoyed well into the older years, even at a competitive level, according to club members. Rowing can be an option for those who have suffered injury in other sports yet want to remain physically active. The Grateful Oars club’s current members range in age from their 20s to their 70s. The minimum age to join is 14.
Members row mainly for recreation and fitness, but some members enjoy competing. Club crews row at least weekly in two-, four-, and eight-person boats. The club has two single recreational shells for experienced members to row individually.
To register for the free June 9 Learn to Row Day or for more information, visit the Grateful Oars web site at www.gratefuloars.weebly.com.
