Women's Brunch and Fun Row


This exciting event will involve composite boats of National Team members, CRI's women and Jr. women sweep rowers & scullers and our own G-ROW Boston Team taking a fun row around the Charles River.  While no racing will be involved, it gives all women rowers a chance to hang out and row with each other.  The row will be followed by a traditional rowers' brunch of bagels, bananas, peanut butter, etc.  A new sweep boat will also be dedicated at the event.
