This morning, the Arkansas Boathouse Club graduated their first Youth Rowing class, drawn mostly from the Weatherington Boys & Girls Club. It was beautiful when the two "4's" crossed the slick, flat water on the Arkansas River to the finish line pulling straight,strong and, best of all, together! Mayor Hayes declared it the NLR Day of each participant, including my granddaughter, Madison:) Neat, neat, neat! Thanks to all who helped make it happen!! Let's do it again!
The ABC plans to carry the youth rowing program forward, so if you have a high-school age youth in the central Arkansas area who might be interested, check out the webpage at http://www.arkansasboathouseclub.org" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I'm jealous that I'm too far away to be involved! Good work Larry and everyone involved in the youth rowing program.

Re: Youth Rowing Clinic A Great Success
I am fast reaching the point where I need to have a lot more oarsmen and women in the sport, just in case!!
Good work and best wishes to the entire club as they continue this program.
