Fun and laid-back; you pull one big oar in a wide, stable boat with 18 rowers and a coxie to call the strokes. I did it last year, it's all-ages and easy. Rowing costs $130 for the full season of training 2 nights a week on the water down by Cherry Bridge. Sign up online; registration week is April 21-24. The awesome end-of-season Viking Festival happens June 12-15 on Toronto Island. Proceeds support inner-city kids programs. Dom, the head coach, is a BIG personality and always makes me laugh.
