PYR Families and Alumni give generously each year to directly impact our athletes and support program goals of accessibility and competitiveness.

Scholarships: Need-based financial aid is granted to families facing financial barriers that prevent their participation in the life-changing sport of rowing. 

Equipment:  To allow our athletes to train and compete in appropriate, competitive equipment, we own a fleet of boats. To ensure this equipment is up-to-date and highly functioning, each year we purchase multiple rowing shells, oars and other necessary equipment as part of the strategic equipment revitalization plan.

Building Capacity for the Future of the PYR: Capital purchases such as a new trailer, truck, coaching equipment, and special operational needs directly impact the athlete and coach experience.  Major facility upgrades ensure future generations of athletes have opportunities to be part of a thriving PYR program.
