The Indianapolis Rowing Center will be participating in the first of what will be an annual row-a-thon this Saturday, March 13! We will be rowing in the NCAA Hall of Champions from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The rowers will sign up for one of three shifts (10-12, 12-2, 2-4) and will be asked to row at least 90 of the 120 minutes. Each shift will have 15 ergs and 16 rowers, the 16th being a “floater” to fill in ergs that aren’t currently being used.
Contact Coach Caitlin with any questions or comments, or to volunteer and/or participate!
IRC wil be marching in this year’s St. Patrick’s Day Parade! Although we have yet to receive details from the parade events committee, our participation has been confirmed – save the date!

February 5,2010
Clarion Inn and Suites Northwest will host the Shortridge Rowing Club this winter as the students learn to swim in preparation for spring rowing. Clarion has graciously offered IRC and Shortridge use of the hotel pool twice per week immediately after school. Shortridge Rowing Club is a program of the Indianapolis Rowing Center and Indianapolis Public Schools. Coached by Emily Hubacek, a Shortridge teacher and former Purdue Rower, the Shortridge Rowing Club has been training on the indoor rowing machines in preparation for the spring rowing season. The swim instruction and waters safety classes allow students the opportunity to become comfortable with the water before rowing on Eagle Creek Reservoir. Non-swimmers can wear life jackets while rowing, but it is a program goal to promote water safety in addition to physical fitness and valuable life- skills. Clarion Inn and Suites Northwest, located at 465 and 71st Street as the official hotel of IRC. Clarion Inn and Suites offers a convenient stay and excellent pricing for out of town competitors and spectators just 15 minutes from the rowing course.
