Guest Rowing Opportunities
Are you an experienced rower interested in taking a row in the beautiful Port Moody Inlet? We would love to welcome you to our club to join us during one of our scheduled rows.
If you are interested in coming out for a guest row, please email the Secretary at secretary@inletrowingclub.com with the the following information:
- Which rowing club you are currently an active member in.
- If you are not currently an active member of a rowing club, please mention when your membership lapsed, and which club you were most recently active with.
- How many years of sculling experience you have.
- Which rowing session you are hoping to participate in.
These questions are important for the safety of both you, our guest rower, and our existing members. This is especially true in the winter when the water and air are both very cold! If you have never rowed before, have only swept, or it has been many years since you last sculled, please consider taking one of our Learn to Row programs instead.
The cost for a guest row is $20* for two hours. Payment can be made in cash or by cheque upon arrival at the boathouse. Payments via credit card can be made by special request (please contact the Secretary for more information). Please make cheques out to Inlet Rowing Club.
*Please note, the $20 fee per row is for current members of Rowing Canada only. Insurance for rowers is provided by Rowing Canada, so if you are not a current member of Rowing Canada, you will need to register first. Each new registration costs $30 in fees ($20 for Rowing Canada, $10 for Rowing BC) and is valid for 1 year of membership. Therefore, if your registration with Rowing Canada has lapsed, you will need to register again and pay for the registration fee again before rowing, and your first guest row will be $50 ($20 guest row fee, $20 Rowing Canada fee, $10 Rowing BC fee). All subsequent guest rows for the year will be $20. To register, go to Rowing Canada and sign up as a "Visiting Rower".
Please contact our secretary at least a week in advance of your proposed row. We need time to ensure we have enough coaches available to help run the practice.
