No rowing experience is necessary. Students will have an opportunity to meet the coaches and athletes, learn the basics of rowing, try the equipment and discover what it is like to be part of a crew.

Rowing is a great way for students to:

• Build strength, endurance and confidence

• Develop teamwork and leadership skills

• Make new friends

• Compete as part of a school/club athletic program

• Explore future college rowing opportunities

Parents are also invited to attend our upcoming Parents Night on September 4 o tour the new rowing center, meet our coaches and volunteers, and learn more about safety, practices, competitions, transportation, costs and what participation with rowing involves.

We are excited to welcome you into the next generation of South Crew and South Parkersburg Rowing.

Walls are all up!

We still need your help as we get closer to being under roof and starting on the interior. This is a completely, privately funded project to date. No public monies are being used to build this facility that will benefit the youth and broader community. We are fortunate to have some very passionate alumni and friends of rowing who have stepped forward to make this dream a reality but we are still in need of roughly $45k to finish the interior including boat/oar racks, storage, lockers, bathroom fixtures, electric, plumbing, etc.

In rowing terms, we are in the ‘last 500’ and looking to finish strong and have a result everyone will be proud of for decades to come.

We invite you to be part of this historic project and donate what you can. Every $1 is an investment in the future of our youth and community.

Help us finish strong by making a donation today and sharing this post with your friends, family, alumni and anyone interested in rowing.

First sections of the walls are up. Part of the strategic design of the boathouse was to use formed concrete walls to be more flood and fire resistant. Concrete walls are 8’ high and the main building will also have an additional 4’ of framed wall on top of that for a total of 12’.

Footers are in! Walls going up next week.

Construction is moving quickly however, we still need your help to fund completion of the interior including boat racks, oar racks, storage, fixtures for men’s/women bathrooms, ADA compliant restroom, lockers, benches, electric, lighting, painting, etc.
