US Under 23 Lightweight National Rowing Team
We are asking for your support for the US u 23 Lightweight National Team Sculling program. In 2006 the US Men's u23 Lightweight Quad won silver at Worlds breaking the previous world record and in doing so brought home the first sculling medal at an U23 World Championships. This year we have a great group of young athletes from all over the US and we are looking at qualifying Lightweight Quad , Double and Single. The challenge also facing us is funding, we need to raise approx 25K . To do this we need to reach about 1000 supporters and we asking them for a $25 donation. We are asking you to be one of these supports and to forward this to five people who you think would like to contribute to our national team, it really means alot. Let's make this a team effort .
