Fun Team Building on the Black Rock Canal!
Rowing teaches lessons in collaboration, discipline and perseverance and is considered the ultimate team sport. There is nothing like the experience of working together on the water to unify a team. West Side Rowing Club (WSRC) provides you and your colleagues a unique experience that enhances team camaraderie. In the hands of WSRC's experienced coaches, everyone, regardless of age, fitness level or previous rowing experience, learns the skills necessary to achieve a common goal and experiences the thrill of rowing an eight-oared shell on the Black Rock Canal.
Rowers face backward to propel a boat, opposite the direction of the boat. For this reason, they must trust their team leader to give them real-time, constructive feedback as they work as a group. Every movement made in a ~60-foot long eight-person shell has an effect on the speed of the shell - a performance that is enhanced by working together. In this unified environment, leaders must also learn to be excellent followers and followers must learn how to lead, and everyone must learn how to do this simultaneously. Through this process, our corporate rowing program creates a culture that promotes growth and trust in teamwork.
As a result, your employees will return to their jobs invigorated and with a new understanding of a commitment to the value of "pulling together".
Give Back to the Community.
By participating in corporate team building, your company will be supporting WSRC's Community Outreach programs. Our outreach programs are designed to improve quality of life by engaging participants in a fitness activity while creating a sense of unity using teamwork to reach a desired goal.
