Asheville Youth Rowing

Congrats to our friends in the Asheville Youth Rowing Association (nice logo, by the way), for a great finish at their latest meet. From the Asheville Citizen-Times website:

Members of the Asheville Youth Rowing Club placed fourth at the John Hunter Regatta in Gainesville, Ga., last Saturday. Overall they finished fourth out of 11 teams, some of which had teams of up to 200 youths.

The Men’s Novice 8 (eight rowers in the boat) won a gold medal and the Women’s Novice 4 won silver. The Women’s Varsity 4 won a Silver medal and the Men’s Varsity 4 won a Bronze Medal. The club, which trains on Lake Julian in Skyland, has about 50 members and is coached by Jack Gartner and Alexis Rosenfelt.
