The OAR Club As Your Guide

Teaching water safety to all campers is paramount.
Our job is to teach the person first, athlete second.
Rowing is a vehicle to learn and teach important life lessons.
The expanded range of movement, increase in core strength and full body workout associated rowing make it a fantastic foundation for a lifetime of thriving in other sports and overall wellness and fitness.

Coaching should not be “one size fits all”. We aim to meet each student athlete where they are and help them succeed.

There’s power in teaching athletes how to embrace a leader mindset by replacing blaming, making excuses and denial with our core values of ownership, accountability, responsibility and servant leadership (OARS).
It’s possible to love working hard at something and it’s important to have fun doing it.
The ultimate success is a continuous pursuit of becoming the best version of yourself. We never stop striving and we expect the same of our rowers.
We exist to develop great student athlete leaders.
