Mission
Sarasota Crew utilizes competitive rowing to promote strong character, high integrity, positive self-concept, contribution to community, and a healthy lifestyle for all youth and adults in Sarasota County and its surrounding communities.
Vision
We aspire to be the pre-eminent rowing club in the country; a model for all crew clubs who strive to serve at risk student-athletes.
Our Underlying Operating Principles
What guides Sarasota Crew to ensure that we Empower Lives. One Rower At A Time? From the President of the Board to our coaches to our administrative staff, our organization:
- Provides a positive developmental experience for all rowers.
- Achieves competitive success through enhancing sportsmanship, individual character, and teamwork.
- Strives to always be a strong contributing partner in our relationship with Historic Spanish Point, Conservation of the Gulf Coast, and with our broader community.
- Maintains a fully functional and vibrant club.
- Depends heavily upon parental contributions of time, energy, and resources.
- Is a joint effort by many. The personality or control of any single individual will not dominate the actions of the club.
