Learn to Sweep is a 3-day adult learn-to-row class, designed to teach the basics of rowing in large team boats with each rower having one oar. This is the style of rowing described in A Most Beautiful Thing and The Boys in the Boat. After a class, many rowers are ready to move to a Masters Green team or join our Masters Blue Team.
