Rowers with SenatorsThe Georgia Senate today recognized AJRA with a Senate Resolution honoring the success of the program over our 27-year history, and our results at the regional and national level the past few years. State Senators John Albers, Judson Hill, and Brandon Beach brought forward this Resolution, which was read and adopted in January.

Several of our senior athletes and their families attended the event, with four athletes representing AJRA before the legislature along with Head Coach Skye Elliot: Kathryn Cosgrove (Johns Creek HS), Matt Morelli (Roswell HS), Robbie Osborne (Roswell HS), and Kate Snyder (Northview HS).
