Winter is not only a great time for off water training but also a great time for rowing shell and boathouse maintenance and repair.

Thanks to the members and coaches who volunteered to dismantled and erected new singles and quad racks, the boathouse is a better and safer place for all.

Did you happen to miss the Head Of The Charles Regatta and Gold Cup webinar on "Retention in Rowing?" No worries. We (they) got you covered! Here is a link to the full webinar for you to watch!
