Blair Crew invites new rowers to join the team for the 2016-2017 school year. Students looking for a bonding team experience that develops friendships, strength, and confidence will find it in Blair Crew. We are a coed, parent-supported club team that rows in the fall and spring (rowers can participate in one or both seasons). Blair Crew DOES NOT CUT – all students who are willing to work hard make the team. Most incoming Blair Crew rowers are new to the sport and learn technique and strategy from our experienced coaches. Practices are held after school and bus transportation between Blair and the boathouse in Bladensburg is provided during the week. Here’s what several of this year’s novice (beginner) rowers and parents have to say about their experience with Blair Crew:
“I definitely feel like I’m part of a team and am a lot stronger now, too. It’s a lot of fun and worth the hard work!”
“Being on Blair Crew has made Blair a lot smaller. I really feel like I’m part of a family.”
“It’s easy to get overwhelmed in the transition from middle school to high school. My daughter’s involvement with Blair Crew gave her an instant community within the school. It also provided her with a tremendous opportunity to develop new friends and discover strengths and skills she didn’t know she had.”
