Gifts to Men's Rowing contribute to...
Welcome to the 2022-23 Marist Rowing Red Fox Navy Campaign!
The Marist Men's Rowing Team is continuing our investment in our oarsmen and women through the enhancement of our travel calendar, facilities, and the ongoing turnover of our fleet of shells, oars, and training equipment. Thanks the alumni, family, and friends who participated in our 2021-22 campaign we raised over $50,000 to benefit the Marist Men's Rowing team. The team purchased two pairs and a quad/straight four for training as well as a brand new Vespoli VHP Eight which was raced at the 2022 IRA National Championship.
This year we are raising the bar and shooting for $60,000 as our fundraising goal! On our immediate wish list for 2023 is rolling over one of our four man shells, a heart rate monitoring system to provide us with an array of new physiological data on and off the water, AND the purchase of a new wakeless launch for the program.
Our Red Fox Navy Challenge is the same format again for this season. Those seeking to be members of the Navy should donate $20 for each year since you graduated from Marist up to $300. For 2023 and moving forward, we have added some higher giving levels for those of you seeking fresh honors and hoping to help take the team to new heights. See the list below for details.
We hope you'll join us in supporting the Red Fox Navy again this year - your continuous support fosters a bright and competitive future for our program and your generosity is appreciated and makes a genuine and immediate difference to the performance and outcomes of our student athletes. Go Red Foxes!
All gifts made to Rowing will be used exclusively to support the Rowing team but will count in our overall Marist Athletics campaign totals.
