Since I was 16 years old I dreamed of establishing a rowing foundation aimed at improving accessibility to this wonderful sport. Lake Crabtree’s unbeatable location and incredibly hospitable staff made the process exponentially easier. My vision resonated with, and ultimately enabled by, a small but priceless group of adults who I simply cannot thank enough. Building RDU Crew would have stayed an idea if it weren’t for these people, and I’d like to thank some of them by name. Drew Cade and his staff from the Park, Dean McCord, Dez Hill, Jackie Bondell, Nancy-Anne Potts, Jamie Woodhouse for their guidance on the board and in various roles in the organization, Geoff Hannert, Stephen McNight, Debbie Arenburg. Tiffany Smith, and Demetris McLeod for their roles within the adaptive rowing program, the dozens of rowers and students who came out to support our mission, and finally my parents Karen and Steve for not only believing in this mission but also believing that I was the person to lead.
While RDU Crew has been an incredible experience that was able to bring rowing into the lives of dozens of people that would have never had this opportunity otherwise, it is simply not my calling and my time at RDU Crew is now over. Unfortunately without an heir to the thrown, the people we serve as an organization would be better served by other organizations.
As of January 1, 2019 RDU Crew has closed. and its services have merged with other local organizations. The website below is preserved for informative purposes. Please feel free to continue to use the contact us box below and I will try my best to point you in the right direction.
