JU Women's Rowing

Our ambition is to develop and sustain an organization that will enhance the collegiate rowing experience from the moment that rowers set foot in the boathouse to the transition into post-college life. 

 

The FoJUR will provide opportunities to our student-athletes, as well as alumni, parents, and friends, in order to stay connected to those bonds forged while rowing the St. Johns River. We actively support the program through communication, volunteering, mentoring, recognition, and fundraising efforts.

 

We strive to honor the past, present, and future, while promoting rowing as a premier sport for the students of Jacksonville University.
