.... or lack thereof. The lakes adjacent to City Park appear to be appropriate for shells, but the LSU Rowing Club appears to be inactive as of January 2009. There are no other known rowing clubs in Baton Rouge, including on the Mississippi River. These lakes are not otherwise used for water sports very often, perhaps because they are shallow, so the lack of rowing opportunities cries out for a remedy. There are LSU-colored boats on racks located in a parking lot near a church on the lake side of Dalrymple Street, just past State Street as you travel towards campus on Dalrymple. E-mails to various addresses associated with the LSU Rowing Club have gone unanswered from August to December, 2008.
