Each December, Row New York hosts the Jingle Mingle, an erg relay event that brings together the Row New York girls with a group of enthusiastic and supportive adult rowers (including novice rowers) for several hours of food, conversation, and healthy competition. Jingle Mingle races include a 3,500 m mixed relay, a kids’ fun race, a masters and juniors relay, and a corporate team relay. If your company would like to field a corporate team, please come join us this December! Special thanks to the Credit Suisse Americas Foundation and the Credit Suisse Employee Volunteer Grant Program for sponsoring the Jingle Mingle each year since 2007.
