Empty the Tanks

Empty the Tanks are a worldwide team established in 2009 with about 70 full-time active teammates. We turned 11 years old in January 2020 and are looking forward to our teenage years! This will be our 11th Fall Team Challenge and our aim is to beat our 2015 Fall Team Challenge top 3% position of 10/272 teams. New rowers of all abilities are very welcome to join in the fun and fitness. Read about the progress of the team at http://carolinesrowing.blogspot.com/.
