Youth Sample Sculling
Start with Sample Sculling and get a FREE introduction to our sport!
These free one-day sessions are designed to provide a no-pressure introduction to sculling for young people who have never tried our sport before. Sample Sculling takes place during the summer, and is a precursor to all camps.
Learn the basics of the stroke on the rowing machine and gain familiarity with our equipment before transitioning into a boat. On the water, all participants will have one-on-one attention from coaches and can either stay connected to the dock or venture out on the river, based on their level of comfort.
These lessons are open to all youth in the Central Valley entering 6th-12th grade in the upcoming academic year. We have multiple dates and times available to work with a variety of schedules.

2-Week Intensive Camp!
And if you are really hooked, join us for our 2-week intensive camp!
This session is for rising 8th graders and older who have participated in a Sample Sculling session and one of
our 4-day camps or who have previously participated in our middle or high school recreational or
competitive seasons. This longer experience is designed to help you become more confident and further develop the foundational skills introduced in the 4-day camps. During these two weeks you will enjoy more time on the water and you will start tackling more challenging workouts. This experience also provides a strong basis for moving onto either our recreational or competitive teams in the Fall.
Wallet-Friendly Fee: The camp fee is $250. Full and partial tuition aid available, based on need!
Weeks of July 17th & 24th: Monday - Thursday | 8:00am - 11:00am

- Life jackets will be available.
- If you don't have a ride, we will do our best to arrange for your transportation to and from practice, or if you ride a bike, we can store it safely in the boathouse. Please mention your transportation needs as soon as possible.
- Classes take place at DSC's boathouse, located at 4950 Buckley Cove Way on West March Lane near Buckley Cove Park.
