Forest Park Crew is a co-ed team that is a self-supporting, legal nonprofit 501(c)3 tax-exempt corporation. Forest Park Crew is considered to be a “non-sanctioned” (i.e. non-funded) high school sport during the Spring season but operates in close cooperation with Forest Park High School throughout each year. Outside of the coaches’ salaries, the team relies and operates solely on donations, rowers’ dues, and fundraisers.
