Atomic Learn to Row Camp at ORRA is a great way to get outside, be on the water, meet new friends, and learn the skill of rowing! Youth will get a taste of what is involved in this exciting sport and will have the opportunity to row with current Atomic rowers and feel what it’s like to row an Eight Person Boat (8+)!
Learn to Row Camp is for girls and boys aged 13-17 years, looking for an introduction to rowing.
2025 Camp Registration opens in May 2025, and camp occurs in June and August 2025.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Do I need past rowing experience? No experience is necessary to learn rowing! What is necessary is comfort around water, and an eagerness to learn something new!
Is there an age requirement? The age range for Learn to Row is 13-17 years.
Can I sign up for multiple weeks? We encourage campers to sign up for both of our Learn to Row camps if possible! The more you do it, the more you learn and the more fun you have!
What should I bring? Please wear close-fitting clothing (rowers wear spandex), with socks and sneakers, and bring a plastic reusable water bottle. Sunscreen, hat, and sunglasses are suggested and a great attitude is required!
