Sammamish Rowing Association’s middle school program takes place in summer only. For fall, students going into 8th grade may try out for SRA’s high school team through the Try Rowing program. See the high school page for more information.
SUMMER CAMPS
Participants in Sammamish Rowing Association's middle school summer camps learn rowing technique on the water and build physical fitness with land-based workouts that can include running, calisthenics, and fitness-related games and competitions. Come have fun with us in summer!
All four sessions of middle school camp are identical. Rowers are welcome to participate in as many camps as they like but should understand that the activities and skills development covered in camp will be the same from one session to another.
Registration priority for summer camps goes to students going into 8th grade. Students going into 7th grade should sign up for the 7th grade waitlist and are added if space is available. Decisions about moving rising 7th graders from the waitlist and into a camp are generally made about two weeks before camp starts. SRA will notify families if spaces become available.
