Programs & Registration
Session 2 registration is open!
Ring in the new! 2018 was a fantastic year for the club. We welcomed so many new rowers, hosted sculling clinics, added more adult coxswains, raced in a few more regattas, painted the boathouse. Who knows exactly what 2019 will bring, but it’s sure to be exciting! Indoor session 1 focused on technique, indoor session 2 will begin to turn towards effectiveness and strength. Coach Anthony has big plans — please save the date of January 20th (Sunday) for a 2019 kick-off meeting for the club.
Indoor Session 2 is 6 weeks long. Our sessions usually start on Monday, but with New Years Day falling on a Tuesday, the first official class will be Wednesday, 1/2. The Monday class will be pro-rated as a result. We will be offering learn-to-row classes twice a week (Monday and Saturday), so encourage your friends and family who want to give it a try. We are also adding a second Sunday morning class (sweep only), so the sweep/scull class from last session will shift half an hour later to make room. PIRC costs have gone up this year, so we will be much more sensitive to meeting minimum enrollments for each class in order to hold them. In particular, we encourage enrollment in the Friday classes (morning and evening) so that we can continue to offer these time slots. If you’re currently enrolled in one of those classes, talk it up!
For rowers who have just completed learn-to-row class:
Congratulations, you can now sign up for any class designated as novice! The coaches will be guiding seating in the tanks to help you transition to rowing with our more experienced participants. For the two class times that are shared between experienced rowers and learn-to-row (Monday nights and Saturday mornings), we have set aside a number of designated seats for novice rowers. This means that you are guaranteed a seat for those classes, but may be seated either on the same side as the learn-to-row group or with the experienced rowers. Also, since we only offered learn-to-row classes once a week in session 1, you will be allowed to make up any missed classes from session 1 during session 2.
As usual, early bird and quantity discounts will be available and will be automatically applied.
Important Note: Quantity discounts are intended for individual use, not for sharing between family members. Please register for classes for one person at a time.
For questions regarding our programming, please email us at registrations@rochesterboatclub.org.
Location/Parking
All indoor classes are held at the Pittsford Indoor Rowing Center (PIRC), at 2800 Clover St. in Pittsford. The entrance is just south of the canal off Clover, on the east side of the road, and is marked with a sign. Be cautious entering, as the driveway is steep and somewhat narrow.
Coaches
This session we are delighted to have the following coaching staff: Anthony Petrella (Head Coach), Connor Wilt, Jack Hylbert, Bri Fennessey, Konstantin Hamilton.
(We hope to see Heidi Granville and Erin Kealey around occasionally…)
