Adopt-a-Rower Wednesday, February 13 • by Sculler (8:43 AM) • Adopt-a-Rower is a mentorship and financial assistance program created in Fall 2007 by Coach Don Rose. The intent of the program is to encourage family, friends, and KSU Crew Alumni to help the current rowers with the expense of rowing but more so to provide guidance to our current rowers. Each adopted rower is required to provide updates on regattas and other crew events like our Alumni Banquet in October. Sponsors may provide rowers with up to $500 per year to cover the cost of regattas, dues, and uniforms. Any Adopt-a-Rower donation not specified for a person will be awarded to a current rower based on their personal essay entitled "Why I want to spend an hour on the water a day." The best essays are selected by a current Kansas State Rowing Association Board of Director's member and a former Men's Crew athlete. If any alumni who wishes to donate or has questions please feel free to email Joey Lightner, Men's Crew President at lightner@ksu.edu. 0 comments
