About
Held at the New Canaan Pop-up Park on the intersection of Elm Street and South Avenue in downtown New Canaan, the event features a demonstration on the use of the "erg" (a machine equipped with a sliding seat, designed to simulate rowing) and other opportunities to learn more about rowing! All of the New Canaan Crew rowers will be on hand for the event, designed to raise funds and seek sponsorships to purchase new equipment for the program. You will also see teammates strolling downtown New Canaan to collect donations to support the effort.
Why the Erg-a-Thon?
As a club sport, the program is self-funded and not eligible for booster funding. The “shells" (boats) and the various equipment required to maintain a crew team are very expensive. The team is incredibly grateful to the New Canaan community for its support in years past and hopes it can continue!
