Unionville rowers pulling for ‘Go for the Boat’

The Unionville Rowing Club, which has nurtured both champions and teamwork in its short history, is seeking the community’s help to “Go for the Boat.”

The club's newly painted oars in Unionville colors will help spectators identify them during races.

The group’s Heart of Rowing fundraiser enabled the club to purchase its first boat last year, which will be christened and put in the water later this month. Proceeds from the event also funded a set of oars, which have been painted with the Unionville colors.

“Our kids deserve to have great boats of their own, and we can do that, one boat at a time,” said a press release for the event.

This year’s event will be held at Hawk’s Hollow, 1296 Brandywine Creek Rd., Coatesville, on Thursday, April 28, from 6 to 9 p.m. It will include great food and drink, music, a silent auction and a raffle.

The price is $50 per person in advance, $60 at the door. To purchase tickets, click here.

For more information and ticket sales, or if you wish to donate an item or service to the silent auction or raffle, contact Mary Worth at 610-368-3903, or at UHS Rowing Club, P.O. Box 118, Pocopson, Pa., 19366. Any donation, however large or small, would be greatly appreciated.
