11 Benefits of TYRA that Make A Difference >>
Each year we look forward to providing access to rowing to the youth of our area. TYRA is entirely self-funded, tax deductible 501(c)3, and depends heavily on donations to offset opperation, equipment, and scholarship costs. Updated equipment is paramount for the safety and training of our athletes to compete at the highest level and win races. It is through your support that our programs flourish and offer student athletes the opportunity to foster confidence and character development. We thank you for taking the time to consider a small donation and to sponsor a passsionate, hardworking group of young rowers.
Fundraiser Details
On Saturday, January 20, 2018, TYRA will arrange over 30 Concept2 indoor rowing machines stationed inside of Woodland Hills Mall located in Tulsa, OK. Our “Ergathon” fundraiser will run from 10:30am to 6:30pm (CT). Individual TYRA athletes will be encouraged to row a minimum distance of one marathon throughout the given time frame – a total of 42,195 meters per person! For a small donation, others are encouraged to participate in order to help us reach our overall fundraising goal of $10,00 and our distance goal of 800 kilometers. How cool would it be to say that you helped TYRA “row” up to the US Space Station and back down to earth?
