After many years serving the KW area, the KWRC has closed it's doors for good in 2020. Please see our post for further information. Names?

Fitness, fun and great scenery along the Grand River were three good reasons to join the Kitchener Waterloo Rowing Club Any suggestions for what was the former KWRC facility? If you are interested in reviving the sport of rowing in the Kitchener Waterloo area, please fill out the survey. This would involve starting up a new club, new shells and hopefully a safe, dry and better same location. http

One ICONIC Destination | One MEGA Event

Canadian news is starting to vanish from Instagram. Google is next. Here's how to find CBC as that happens | CBC News 05/07/2023

In regards to Meta and now Google's decision about blocking Canadian news, I am angry that they consider their business above the law.

IF Canadians with pages decided to start reporting each and EVERY paid advertising published on their Facebook feed, we could effectively use our collective Canadianism to hit the pockets of Meta. You can do this by blocking ads on your page:

All you have to do is to
1. Leave a message on the ad that you will be blocking them to protest Mega's blocking of Canadian news on Facebook and Instagram, and state that you're reporting it as "Canadian news". Then wait for a few minutes for it to get placed on their feed.
2. On the top of the ad, tap the three dots beside the X at the top of the ad. Scroll down to "Report this ad" and choose one of the selections that will cause Facebook to take some time to look at the ad, and when/if asked why you are reporting it, use two words...."Canadian News".
3. Submit your reason.

Do the same in Instagram.

Start using DuckDuckgo as your search engine in your browsers. That can be changed in the browser settings.

Install the duckduckgo app on your phones and devices. Make it your default browser.

Send this out to your contacts by email.

Copy and repost this on your page if you feel the same. Together, we can make a difference against censorship and the dictatorship of the likes of Meta and Google. They appear to be trying to colonialize Canada and Canadians with the US.

As Canadians, let's give these mammoth companies the silence they are enforcing on Canadians.

Colonialism and censorship are coming to a platform you use... read this while you can.

In the last few years of the KWRC there was talk of putting together crews to participate in this event. Sadly those dreams were sunk by factors out of our control.
Wishing every Masters, coaches, officials and volunteers for this year's event to have a great time and nothing but fantastic memories!

Missing the thrill, the competition and the friends at the regattas.

In historic first, women's rowing teams take on St. John's Regatta long course | CBC News 27/06/2022

NFLD women rowers rock on the Rock. Breaking through a barrier to do the 2,450m full course! Congratulations to those women and those who will keep rowing the distance and breaking records.

KWRC had crews of women who went from novice to medal winning in 5k "Head" races in the fall, in one short season.

If you were part of those crews, drop a memory, pictures and stories for our visitors.
