At Nathan Benderson Park, we believe rowing is a sport for everyone. Because of that, the NBP Community Rowing Club partnered with Sarasota Scullers to bring STEM To Stern to the Suncoast. This introductory day invites everyone in the community to try rowing, but also to welcome everyone to the new STEM To Stern program at NBP. FREE EVENT for people 12 and older. Snacks and swag will be available. RESERVE YOUR SPOT at the "Tickets" link on this page (there are no tickets, but the process ensures you have a spot!). More info at sarasotascullers.org/stemtostern
