Lakeport >> Mike Sullivan, who was coached rowing at the college level for numerous years, will offer beginning rowing lessons this summer as part of the Clear Lake Scullers summer season.
Saturday morning lessons are free on May 7 and 14 from 8 a.m. to noon. Residents and visitors of all ages are welcome. Kayaks and canoes will be available to try in addition to the rowing sculls. People are also welcome to try rowing on the team boat every Saturday at 8 a.m., no experience necessary.
The goal of Clear Lake Scullers is to provide broad access to Clear Lake and to expose people to a wide variety of aquatic sports with emphasis on safety and competence. Membership is open to the public and there is rowing year round, weather permitting.
The club is located in Lakeport at the site of Natural High School on Main Street just north of Library Park.
Sullivan is also available to teach the skills necessary for athletes to train and race. For more information contact him at sul@slac.stanford.edu or (707) 349-9779.
