The Brockville Rowing Club is excited to announce a partnership with the YMCA of Eastern Ontario that will bring expanded and enhanced summer camp programming to local youth.
The YMCA has a longstanding tradition of providing high-quality day camps to local youth, and the partnership will offer four weeks of full-day camps for both new and experienced rowers this summer. This partnership will allow for a strong focus on safety, skill development, and fun, while continuing the Club’s tradition of fostering a love for the sport of rowing.
“We’re excited to partner with the Brockville Rowing Club to bring this incredible opportunity to local youth,” said Rob Adams, CEO of the YMCA of Eastern Ontario. “Together, we can inspire young people to discover their potential, build lasting connections, and develop a lifelong love for staying active and engaged in their community.”
Michael O’Shaughnessy, Chair of the Brockville Rowing Club’s Board of Directors, added:
“We’re proud to be partnering with the YMCA to bring a new level of excellence to our summer programs. The Y’s reputation for running safe, engaging camps complements our goal of nurturing a strong community of rowers. We look forward to welcoming youth from across the region to our boathouse this summer.”
An added benefit of this partnership is that campers and their families will have access to the YMCA’s financial assistance program, ensuring that no child misses out on the opportunity to experience summer camp due to inability to pay.
Families who have already registered for camp through the Brockville Rowing Club will be contacted directly to ensure a smooth transfer of their registration to the YMCA’s system.
