Rowing Program
LUC Outreach Foundation provides the benefits of rowing to underserved members of our community, specifically targeting at-risk youth, the developmentally disabled and the physically challenged.
Special summer regatta
We are pleased to be sponsoring a group of 12 developmentally disabled adults this year. The group is in the capable hands of Coach Dave Anderson along with other Lake Union Crew volunteers. The participants are put through their paces on the ergs and water, provided with transportation and attend practice, every Wednesday evening, for 8 weeks. They finish off the season with a thrilling exhibition race at the Summer Extravaganza on Greenlake. Come watch the race!
Scholarships
Our foundation also offers need-based scholarships to youth rowers. In addition to the tangible benefits of physical conditioning and the social benefits of teamwork, our programs provide participants with experiences that can change their lives, long term, in a positive way.
For more information on participating or scholarships please contact Ann Wunderlin.
