STAFF REPORT
A two-time Olympic rower
and head coach of Cooperstown
Crew will be starting a
new indoor rowing program in
partnership with the Oneonta
Boys and Girls Club.
Andrea Thies, along with
several accomplished rowers
and coaches from Cooperstown
Crew, will hold a free rowing
clinic for high school age girls
and boys from 2 to 3:30 p.m. at
the Oneonta Boys and Girls Club
on River Street on Friday April
11. According to Thies, no previous
experience is necessary.
Thies says the rowing program
will provide opportunity
for high school age students
and their parents that are curious
about the sport of rowing to
learn from top-notch athletes.
She says rowing is also one of
the best total body workouts
so if students already play other
sports, this is a chance to learn a
new sport while cross training.
For the students that join the
rowing program, they first learn
to row using rowing ergometers
at the Oneonta Boys and Girls
Club. The goal, for the students
that complete the program, is to
row this summer on the water
and to be racing this fall at regattas
across New York.
For more information visit the
Club at 70 River St. in Oneonta
or contact Petrea Delberta at
432-1133 . Information is also
