Help local athlete go to World University Games

Hello, my name is Andrew Snow from Agawam MA rowing out of the University of Rhode Island Crew Club. All through high school I was an average swimmer but when I found crew here at the university, I knew I found the sport for me.

After winning a regional title and currently, on my way to a national title, I have officially been invited to join the USA Nationals team to compete at the Summer FISU University Games in Chengdu, China.

When I joined crew, I didn't know what opportunities were in store, but I always knew this sport would change my life. This year seated as President and awarded Oarsmen of the Year, not only have I grown as an athlete, but as an individual as well.

Now as I transition to my senior year, I have been invited to join the USA Nationals team to compete internationally this summer! After daily sunrise workouts filled with indoor training on the erg, long bike rides, and extensive runs, the work is beginning to pay off.

I'm looking to fundraise at least $7,000 and this is what the money will go towards:
  • Round Trip Ticket (Oaklahoma training)
  • Registration costs
  • Food Expenses
  • USA team fees
These are a few of the costs for the expensive, but educational experience ahead. Any form of support is appreciated and impactful.

I understand I'm asking for a lot of support, but this is an event that I will forever be able to learn from. This opportunity to encounter new cultures as I compete against teams from Europe, Australia, and Asia, is unlike any other. The lessons from a grounding trip like this will be cherished as I return to URI Crew in the fall.

I will gladly talk about rowing all day for those that are interested. If anyone wants to learn more about my history, challenges, or is interested in just learning more about the sport, I would be more than happy to answer any and all questions that you might have.
