Curious about rowing? Discover Rowing Day is a one-hour, hands-on introduction to the sport at Olentangy Rowing Club—no experience required. Held at our indoor erg (rowing machine) training facility, this session gives middle and high school students the chance to learn the basics of rowing technique, try it out on the ergs, and get a feel for what it’s like to be part of our team.

 

During the session, athletes will:

 

• Learn proper rowing technique and terminology on the erg

• Meet ORC coaches

• Learn what a typical ORC season looks like, including practices, regattas, and team culture

​

This event is designed to be welcoming, informative, and fun—whether you’re exploring rowing for the first time or considering joining a future season. Parents are welcome to attend and ask questions while learning more about the ORC program, commitment levels, and next steps.
