• Emma Willard Boathouse

  Emma Willard¹s private boathouse was constructed in the fall and winter of 2006 and first used during the 2007 spring season. The boathouse is located at the far north end of Green Island, approximately 5 miles from campus. We house (3) Eights, (1) Four/Quad, (2) Doubles, in addition to racing and recreational singles. We have a state of the art docking facility and have the ability to row on both the Mohawk and Hudson Rivers, virtually guaranteeing suitable conditions for practices and miles of unobstructed open water. Our 1500-meter racecourse is straight, deep, wide, and very spectator friendly as the finish line is located at the 112th Street Bridge in North Troy.

• Multi Purpose Trails

  The wooded trails on campus are a perfect fit for our cross-country team to train or for the Emma community to use throughout the year. The natural escape is a great place to take a break from busy campus life and go for a walk or run and in the winter cross-country skiing and snowshoeing fill the trails.
