The Loyola Academy Rowing Association has embarked on an 'engraved-brick donor campaign' and development of a brick-patio just outside the LARA boathouse.

Secure your part of LARA's legacy and community by purchasing a personally engraved brick!

All 'contributions' are tax deductible and will be applied towards the development of the LARA program for future generations of rowers.

For further information please click on the Donate tab Brick Campaign for brick options, pricing and order form! 

Your generosity and support are greatly appreciated!

Welcome to the Loyola Academy Rowing Association (LARA) website! This portion of the website provides basic information about the Loyola Academy rowing program to include the program history, our coaching staff, practice locations, governance, and a directory. The pictures of our regattas and activities are linked through Shutterfly.

Founded in 1985, Loyola Academy Rowing Association (LARA) provides a rare, highly desirable opportunity for Loyola Academy students to participate in the sport of rowing. Of fundamental importance, LARA believes that the arduous, demanding nature of the sport creates the ideal environment for the physical, mental, and spiritual development of student athletes. To this end, LARA endeavors to lead students toward recognition, appreciation and fulfillment of their true athletic potential through the shared pursuit of winning both the MSRA Midwest Championships and the SRAA National Championships. The teams, as constructed, strive toward excellence with dedication to Jesuit ideals, including aspiring to become “Women and Men for Others.”
