About Us
Session Times
New members are asked to double check session times for any deviations by ringing the club phone. Please be at the shed and ready to row at the following times, as this is when boat allocations are made. Boats are usually loaded and on the water within 15 minutes.
Please call the club for current morning and afternoon session times.
Additional sessions can be organised in consultation with other club members.
Routine weekend breakfasts are held as a chance to bring new rowers into the club and give current members a chance to socialise off the water.
Membership
Riverway Rowing Club is a non-profit community sporting organisation and is reliant on both rowing and non-rowing members to keep the club operational.
