ROWING: ELEVATED

Colorado’s Youth Rowing Team

Our mission is to provide a healthy experience and atmosphere where student athletes can experience all the benefits rowing has to offer.  Our programs are designed to bring out the best in each athlete in a fun and competitive environment.

Mile High Rowing Colorado’s two practice locations on the Cherry Creek Reservoir and the Boulder Reservoir make rowing accessible to junior rowers from across central Colorado and beyond: Denver, Boulder, Golden, Cherry Creek, Parker, Littleton, Castle Rock, and Colorado Springs - just to name a few. Many of our rowers come to MHRC with diverse athletic backgrounds. Many of our athletes continue rowing in leading collegiate programs across the US.
