We are incredibly excited to announce our second annual “Row for the River” fundraiser, which will take place on September 19th, 2026. Last year’s event enabled us to continue our fleet modernization plan, a huge milestone for our club and a testament to the generosity of our community.
We are eager to build on that success by raising $75,000 this year in support of these important causes:
The Connecticut River Conservancy's mission for clean water, healthy habitats, and resilient communities throughout the Connecticut River watershed;
NCR’s inclusivity initiatives to provide income-qualified youth scholarships and recreational access to the Connecticut River, connecting people, river, and community for participants of all ages and abilities.
Continued investment in our fleet of rowing shells to meet the evolving needs of our rowers and to support our growing programs.
