Rowing Club Representatives are Invited to Attend an Information Seminar on Changing Water Levels

Row Ontario plays an active part in a multi-organizational working group on the issues surrounding the impact of high water levels and changing water conditions throughout the province. We are joined on this group with provincial sport partners such Ontario Sailing and Canoe Kayak Ontario.

Through the working group an important seminar will be held in Toronto on Saturday, Feb. 15 to learn more about dealing with changing water levels and forecasting what is to come in the years ahead. Each rowing club is invited to send a representative or two to participate in this session.
