Fundraising Objective
Through fundraising throughout the 2024-2025 racing season, Minnesota Men's Crew aims to purchase a new 8+ racing shell to increase our national competitiveness. The cost of this investment is anticipated to approach $60,000. Starting with the Annual Fall Reunion on October 5th, 2024, our goal is to hit the first $25,000 milestone.
