St. Catharines Rowing Club
Henley Island Drive L2N4V9 Saint Catharines, ON, Canada

Thanks to Louise Hastings' careful eye, Masters rower and Board Member Marion Markinian was spotted on the front page of yesterday's St. Catharines Standard! Great work keeping active during the lockdown, Marian!

The election has begun! All members should have received their e-ballot this morning via email to elect our 2021 Board of Directors. Select 17 of the 19 candidates and submit your ballot, that's it! Takes less time than a 500m sprint! Election runs until Friday, January 15th at 6pm.

Coach Nick sent out the seat racing results last night ;)

"As a result of COVID-19, St. Catharines Rowing Club has already lost over $100,000 in proceeds from the Spring Season. Like most sports clubs, our revenue relies on membership and event dues and fees. While we remain hopeful there will be a summer season we cannot replace already lost income. An appeal to members and supporters is necessary to ensure the club remains solvent. The proceeds from this fundraising will be used to ensure the capability for the future of Canada's ...largest rowing club to provide competitive and recreational rowing programs for the Niagara Region and others across Canada that may choose to join our club." If you are so inclined to donate to the St. Catharines Rowing Club this holiday season, you can find the link below to our homepage, with the link attached. This fundraising campaign will go until December 31. Many thanks. https://www.stcatharinesrowingclub.org/
