This year, with your help, Hobart Rowing is ready to smash our fundraising goals. Athletics Day of Donors has been going strong for five years now, each year blasting through the previous year’s record. So this year, it’s for all the marbles, and we are in it to win it!
Hobart Rowing needs your support in funding:
Training Trips $40,000: The cost of our sport is often a roadblock to participation, and these trips are incredible opportunities that create skills and memories that last a lifetime. I need your support to minimize the financial impact our winter and spring training camps have on our ability to have the entire team participate in these special times of the year. Your engagement in this combined effort is essential to improving our teams' opportunities.
Recruiting $15,000: Your support ensures that our coaches have the resources required to achieve our goals. Recruiting is a mainstay of our program. Our enhanced recruiting efforts have allowed us to recruit athletes from Australia, Western and Eastern Europe, and the entire United States. With the addition of Associate Head Coach Justin Stangel, we can leverage our entire staff in recruitment across the globe as we compete with the Top 15 programs in the country.
Student-Athlete Nutrition $6,000: Performance and nutrition are inextricably linked. To enhance our oarsmen's daily performance and recovery, we use your support to provide our athletes with compliant supplementation and access to quick and easy food between sessions at the boathouse and during our training camps.
As always, your support is the backbone of our program's success. Without you, NONE of this would be possible! You help our athletes feel like champions every day!
P.S. If you have any difficulty making your gift, please contact Wendy Barnhart at (315) 781-3725 or barnhart@hws.edu, between 8:30 a.m. and 5 p.m. EST.
*To ensure accuracy, offline gifts will be counted after the close of the giving day. Note that the leaderboard may vary slightly from actual numbers because of this.

In the last hour of Athletics Day of Donors, there was so much traffic to the GiveCampus site that our faithful and generous Hobart and William Smith community crashed it! As a result, we have extended the Day of Donors by 2 hours. If you haven't already made your gift there is still time! The site will now shut down at 2:30 p.m.
