Have you always wanted to learn how to row? Here's your chance!

Merrimack River

On Saturday, June 11, the Friends of MHL and the Essex Rowing Club are partnering to offer two workshops at the Essex Rowing Clubhouse, 656 Lowell Street in Methuen. Learn how to crew like the “Boys in the Boat!” Get a feel for rowing on the rowing machines, then head outside and  learn about the boats. The day will end on the river where you will  experience the team work and coordination it takes to win an Olympic medal. Participants age 13-18 should be accompanied by an adult, but we can make exceptions. A $10 fee is required for each registrant. Sign up for the 10-12:30 session or the 2-4:30pm session, and drop off or send your payment to Stefani Traina, MHL, 2 N. Main St., Andover, MA, 01810. Please register by June 7th. Call 978-623-8401, x49 or email straina@mhl.org if you have questions.
