Woodson Rowing is powered by the all-volunteer C.G. Woodson High School Rowing Boosters Association, Inc. Our fundraising efforts are critical to the success of the team every year. You can support the team right now with a donation. Each gift helps us bring in new equipment for the team from a new boat down to a set of oars or an erg for winter conditioning. Consider a gift today.
We also require the commitment, dedication and active participation of student-athletes (and their parents or guardians). Maintaining a crew team is costly. New equipment prices include:
- eight oared shells, $42,000
- four oared shells, $26,000
- a set of oars, $4,000
- outboard motors, $2,700
- launch/safety boats, $2,500
- ergometers, $1000.
To help us with these costs, the Association sponsors a number of major fundraising activities during a normal year including Tag Days, a Craft Show, fundraising campaigns, Corporate Sponsorship, and Restaurant Fundraisers.
The C.G. Woodson High School Rowing Boosters Association, Inc (the “Association” d/b/a “Woodson Rowing” and “Woodson High School Rowing Program”) is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization supporting the athletes of Woodson High School Crew Team in Fairfax, Virginia. The team receives no financial support from the county school system and solely relies on member dues and fundraising for equipment, uniforms, coaching salaries, and all operating expenses. In the past two seasons, our boats included two state championships, five others medaled at States, and five qualified for Nationals.
