rowing club 2The NMC Rowing Club participated in the Leelanau Chase, their first official timed race.  The Hawk Owls team of Brian Kindt, Pierce Thomas, Kim Kelderhouse, Noelle Sieloff and the cox Micah Thoreson was timed at 11:38 for 2.5K.  In addition, the club assisted the Lake Leelanau Rowing club with parking and event timing for the regatta that had over 400 downstate high school rowers​.  It was a great opportunity for the NMC Rowing Club to gauge their progression after only five training sessions together.

rowing club 1The NMC Rowing Club is a new student club and is open to all NMC students.  During the winter, the club will have some rowing machines set up locally and students train over the winter in preparation for the spring regatta season to compete against other college and university club programs.  For more information please contact NMC Rowing Club member Noelle Sieloff at sielofn@mail.nmc.edu.
