Mile High Rowing Club, Denver’s only youth rowing program, is hosting its first Ergathon on Saturday, November 14, at Cherry Creek State Park Marina starting at 9 a.m. Rowers will race on rowing machines, with each team of eight youth members rowing a 42,000-meter marathon.
Rowers are asking family, friends, and community members to sponsor their races. All funds raised from the Ergathon will be used to purchase equipment, including boats, oars, and a trailer to help support the team’s growing number of rowers. In addition to providing Denver area youth with the opportunity to learn the sport of rowing, Mile High Rowing Club consistently qualifies boats to race in national competitions across the country and a number of the team’s rowers continue with rowing at the college level.
