Thank you to everyone who came out to our open house! 🚣

From first-timers to longtime members, we had a great time on Megunticook Lake this weekend. Participants went out on our new Lynx training barge and in the quad, giving new rowers a real feel for the sport and the water.

To everyone who tried rowing for the first time today—we hope you felt the pull (literally) and can picture yourself out there again. Megunticook Rowing is a welcoming community for rowers of all experience levels, and we'd love to have you join us.

Ready to row with us? Reach out at [email protected] or send us a DM to learn more about membership and upcoming sessions.

See you on the water. 🌊

Say hello to Lynx 🚣—our brand-new training barge, built by our very own Meredith Currier.

Meredith built Lynx to recreate something that shaped her as a young rower: the chance to learn the stroke without worrying about balancing the boat. In her words:

"The idea for Lynx came from a desire to create this same learning environment... without the enormous undertaking of building tanks."
What she didn't expect? Experienced rowers love her just as much as beginners do.

"If Lynx can help people accomplish their goals in a rowing shell — whether that's performing at a high level at the Head of the Charles, or feeling comfortable when the wind comes up on the way home from the north islands of Megunticook — it will be a great success."

Come see Lynx in person and try her yourself! Read more about Lynx on our website!

Our Junior rowers are off to a great start this season with wins in Portland and Medford!

The Megunticook Loonies made their presence known at their first competition of the season on April 12, racing indoors at Waynflete’s gym in Portland. The event featured 2,000-meter erg races for both boys’ and girls’ teams, along with a fast-paced mixed relay. Competing against Maine Coast Rowing Association and Waynflete, the Loonies faced tough competition and competed like champs. The camaraderie and sportsmanship were outstanding all around! Read more on our website.

On May 3 the Loonies traveled to Medford, MA, for the Mayor's Cup Invitational. Coach Bob reports: "The first race of the day was the quad with Tucker, Grace, Lucy, Laura with the gold over MCR. Second race same four rowers with Natasha as cox in the V 4+ did not advance to the finals from their heat. Third race Novice mixed 4+ with Molli, Avery, Natasha, Vivian and Laura cox. They qualified for the B final where they faced Malden, a local team. They veered into our lane twice, and we clashed oars in the last 500. They got the bronze by a boat length. Great job by the team, especially the novice 4, racing with one short week on the water."

Docks are in and we are READY TO ROW!

Getting our docks into place on beautiful Megunticook Lake is no easy feat. Floats need to be removed from storage and assembled, then towed into position at Barrett's Cove. Our amazing team of volunteers got the job done in record time this year! Many thanks to all of our dedicated members, family, and friends who came out to help.

Have you always dreamed of learning to row? Make this the year to do it! We'll be holding Learn-to-Row classes on the water (weather permitting) all season long. No experience is necessary and anyone over the age of 12 is welcome to sign up. More info about this year's Learn-to-Row sessions will be posted on our website soon.

Want to stay in the loop? DM us with your email address to receive our monthly newsletter and find out about classes and events.
