FUND RAISING
At an Anniversary of 60 years, it is the perfect time to raise critical funds for the Men's Program and expand the donor base to find a sense of giving to the program needs. College athletics is going through some radical changes with the proposed NCAA NIL Settlement and Impact Analysis ready to impact schools including Northeastern, and funding for programs are more critical than it has ever been. Programs like rowing are truly at risk.
MEN'S TEAM
60 Years is a lot of history of great athletes that have given their hearts and souls to building the culture and reputation of NU Men's Rowing. Let's support this years anniversary squad and coaches to propel NU Husky rowing into a even stronger next 60 years.
COMMEMORATIVE MERCHANDISE
The NURA is building some great items to commemorate 60 years of Men's Rowing. Check out the beautiful etched glasses with the 60th anniversary logo provided by Victor Pisinski's ('72) RowingPad.com company.
