Marauders Give Back – Support Prep Rowing

Prep Rowing is on the rise. This fall our roster grew to 75 athletes, and our Varsity 8 earned a top-20 finish out of 85 boats at the Head of the Charles, the biggest regatta in the sport. Our rowers are putting in the work, and the results show it.

Prep’s Jesuit mission calls us to be “men for and with others.” In a boat, our rowers learn what that means: eight athletes, one rhythm, no one carrying the team alone.

Why we’re asking?

Growth brings new needs. Soon we move indoors for winter training, then on to the spring championship season. Your gift on Marauders Give Back Day, November 6, will help us:

• Upgrade our boat fleet. More rowers means more boats, and our fleet needs to keep pace.

• Install telemetry systems on additional boats. It gives athletes and coaches real-time data on speed, stroke rate, and consistency to train smarter.

• Cover entry fees at our biggest regattas, so we can race against the best crews in the country.

• Send a boat to the USRowing Youth National Championships in Sarasota, Florida, in June, the highest stage for our spring season.

• Reduce the cost of our spring training trip, so more athletes can attend.

• Make rowing more affordable for every athlete. No young man who wants to row at Prep should be priced out.

Every dollar counts. Whether you rowed at Prep, you’re a parent or grandparent, or you believe in what this team is building, your gift goes directly to our athletes.

Give on November 6 and help us! Prep 4 Life! Go Marauders!
