City Island Rowing

Hi everyone! My name is Delaney Leddy and I've been rowing for City Island for almost two years now. We practice year-round, always working hard on or off the water. Rowing has given me so much - from teaching me hard work and discipline, to giving me the best friends that I could ask for. 

We are now in our winter season so we are in the gym five days a week for practice. In order to pay for all of the equipment that we use, such as boats, oars, ergs, and more, we hold an annual fundraiser, our Ergathon. This year is especially exciting because the proceeds will help to fund the purchase of a brand new Hudson USP 8+. If you want to learn more about this boat, feel free to check it out on our website .

My teammates and I will be investing our sweat equity! On Sunday we will complete a grueling 90-minute endurance piece on the indoor rowing machine ("the erg"). It will be mentally and physically exhausting, but it's for such a great cause, and I will have all of my supporters in mind to keep me motivated.

Thank you again for your support (especially if you have supported me before), your donation means so much to me and my teammates!
