Row Dallas allows kids in underserved communities to learn skills that extend beyond the water. Author: Sean Giggy Updated: 6:34 AM CDT June 4, 2021 DALLAS — For most eighth-graders, life doesn’t get much harder than a math test. But for 14-year-old Jeremy Belgrade, his problems were bigger than just algebra. “My grades were really bad,” Belgrade said. “Most of my grades for every semester were mostly failing. I only had like one passing grade.” Belgrade says that all changed when he got an invitation to the lake. It came from a program called Row Dallas, which offers kids in underserved communities a chance to try rowing.
