ELIGIBILITY: CRRC offers Financial Assistance two times a year: at the start of the Fall/Winter and the Spring/Summer seasons. All members of the CRRC Junior Team competitive program are eligible to apply for Financial Assistance funds, which cover part of the seasonal fees. Previous rowing experience is not required.
CRRC Financial Assistance Fund: This fund was created to help cover the costs of the regular Junior Competitive rowing program and does not, at this time, cover participation in special events (competing at the Head of the Charles Regatta or Junior Nationals). CRRC holds several events or activities to help raise money for this fund and also applies for grants from community foundations and individuals. We distribute as much money as we can from the fund while working hard to keep funds available for the next season.
CRITERIA: Financial assistance ranges from 25% to 75% of the total season's fees. The CRRC Financial Assistance Committee makes awards based primarily upon financial need. In addition, without disclosing the applicant’s financial information and if the rower has participated in past seasons, the Committee asks for comments from the coaching staff about the rower’s attitude, commitment, and participation, and from the Junior Parent Committee chairs about the family’s volunteer participation.
CONFIDENTIALITY: The application materials and review process are completely confidential. Applications are read only by the CRRC Financial Assistance Committee. All committee members are committed to maintaining confidentiality of the application and the decision-making process
APPLICATION REQUIREMENTS: [Please read the instructions carefully and complete all questions below.]
Note: You will need to send in a check for $100 (made payable to Camp Randall Rowing Club) to CRRC, PO Box 258160, Madison, WI 53725, OR you can register online and pay only $100 in fees. This amount will be applied to the season’s program fees. All applicants must register for the team to attend practice.
Applications will not be accepted for rowers who:
- have outstanding unpaid balances from previous seasons.
- did not comply with the conditions of previous Financial Assistance awards.
- do not submit all of the required information by the application deadline.
