Wednesday am rowing back on from 31 March 2021
As well as the relatively formal learn-to-row courses we have a more informal way of getting in to rowing for adults. On Wednesday mornings we offer those who are not at work (or are otherwise available) a chance to learn to row in small groups. Experienced rowers are also welcome.
We meet at 9.30 and finish 12.00 noon approx. For beginners we have use of our Explore Rowing Swift stable training boats (three quads/fours, two doubles and two singles) and three older Edon training singles. For the more experienced we have the choice (within limits) of the club's fine (skinny) boats.
The charge is £5 a session and or £16 for a monthly off-peak membership. Fees/subs are reviewed each November.
If interested in coming along, please get in touch first as we have limited numbers we can cope with on any one day - email Colin Percy at colinwpercy@gmail.com.

Wednesday morning rowing and the first eight out in years - 14 Jul 21
For anyone coming for the first time, make sure you bring sports clothing (indoor and outdoor, not too baggy), trainers and wellies/sandals/wet shoes - nothing too expensive - it might get a bit dirty or wet. Hoodies or jackets with open pockets are not allowed when rowing or on the rowing machines (thumbs get caught). A full change of clothes is advised.
From the end of September 2021 we have been operating of fairly light touch policy on Covid related precautions. We rely largely on indvidual rowers and visitors to be sensible and not to put others at undue risk of infection. We have changing rooms and showers available but encourage participants to arrive and leave in their sports gear. Our full policy is here.
