And, several doctors and nurses volunteered to conduct the training. PeaceHealth also donated 4,000 to the program.

That covers coaching, equipment and travel expenses. Besides Marina del Rey, there are junior rowing programs in Long Beach and Newport Beach. Races are held in October and November and in the spring, culminating in regional and national championships.
Before parents start urging their daughters to rush into rowing in attempt to receive a college scholarship, they better understand what it involves.
'It's a huge commitment and a lot of hard work and not for everybody,' said Griebenow's mother, Tina. 'It's physical work. It's pretty grueling, but she loves it.'
Griebenow's father, Larry, played volleyball at UCLA, and her younger brother, Chris, is a freshman water polo and volleyball athlete at Mira Costa. Chris watches what his sister endures and isn't about to tease her about getting up on Saturdays at 6 a.m. to go racing.
'He sees how exhausted I am at the end of the day,' Griebenow said. 'If I'm really sore, he'll mess with me being a little brother. But he's like, 'No way am I going to do that.' '
It's the rowing machine, known as the erg, that leaves athletes in agony.
'I just want to break it in half after a workout because I'm so tired, but I know it's really good for me,' Griebenow said. 'It's the best workout I can get off the water.'
The erg score can help earn a rower a college scholarship, according to Abramovitz, because 'you can get a pretty good sense of a rower's natural ability and their overall strength and mental toughness by having them row on the machine.'
Griebenow's score tells recruiters that she can pull 2,000 meters in 7 minutes 26 seconds
