City Island Rowing

Hi I'm Sophie!
This fundraiser is going to the City Island yearly ergathon, and all of the equipment we use (boats, oars, cox box, etc) !

This is my first year rowing but I have already gotten so much out of it, and I can't even believe how much I've accomplished. I started in the summer, and it was just supposed to be something to do over the summer, but I quickly found my love and passion for the sport, and was lucky enough to make it on to the team. Even over the short time that I've been on the team, I have gotten stronger and more disciplined than I ever thought was possible which makes me more confident everyday! Every time we practice, I know that I am pushing myself as hard as I can go, and so are my teammates, which is one of the best things about rowing. It is so empowering to step into the boat with the other girls and know that we are going to have fun and try our best, and I know that these feelings apply to all of my teammates. But, we do need the best equipment to make that happen. So please consider donating to my amazing team and help us get stronger every practice! 

Also, if you would like to hear/see more about rowing, my amazing coach Sydney Tuck created this wonderful video to show how important this sport is to us, https://fb.watch/v/1jqo0uS79/.
