A NOTE FROM NATHALIE FISCHER, MHRA PRESIDENT

It's great to see the boathouse bustling with activity again this season. Our Learn to Row sessions filled quickly, and our Sculling Clinic sold out in record time—a wonderful sign of the growing interest in rowing. (We're still accepting names for the July Learn to Row waitlist, so there's still a chance to join us!)

Congratulations to our women's 8+ crew, who captured first place at the Miles of Hope Regatta and are already back in training for their next race. Go team! We're also excited to be running a pilot "Skill Builder" program designed to help newer rowers develop confidence and refine their technique. The program has been well received, and we hope to make it a regular part of our offerings next season.

Whether you're an experienced rower, a newcomer to the sport, or simply curious about what we do, we'd love to hear from you. If you have questions or would like to learn more about rowing with us, please don't hesitate to get in touch.
