Tulsa Youth Rowing Association (TYRA) is Tulsa's only youth rowing team that provides both competitive and recreational level programs. Our co-ed programs are comprised of middle school and high school athletes from all over the Tulsa metro and regional area. Though we come from varying schools and socioeconomic backgrounds, #oneteam truly embodies the spirit of our team and the bond we share.

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 operation, 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 donation and to sponsor a passionate, hard-working group of young rowers.

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" 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 minimum donation, others are encouraged to participate in order to help us reach our overall fundraising goal of $10,000 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?
