Hello Jennie,

 I have an update of upcoming classes at JLAC for the newsletter:

1)      Adult Learn to Row: Beginning Saturday May 3^rd 8:30 -10:30 AM.  Learn the basic concepts of sweep, one oar, rowing in this 6 session class.  Classes continue on Tuesday and Thursday morning at 6- 7:30, and cycles through another week.  We will use a combination of the rowing machine, the ergometer, and the training barge to teach you the fundamentals of Olympic Style rowing.  Class cost is $150, and participants do not need to know how to swim

2)      Introduction to Sculling:  May 17 and 18, 9- noon. This is a weekend course for those interested in taking a single scull, rowing with two oars, out on their own. This is a great alternative for those looking for an individual sport. Class cost is $100, and participants must know how to swim.

 

I am also attaching the press release for our upcoming open house.  This even is for free, and anyone can try kayaking, rowing, dragon boating, and outrigger canoeing.

 

Please let me know if you need any more information, thanks.

Best,
