Join
Sunset Row
Beginning rowers: You must see one of our US Rowing certified instructors. They will teach you how to row safely on open water. They will determine when you are ready to row by yourself. The instructors will show you our equipment, how to clean and store it, and have you sign the relevant paperwork. It takes a minimum of four lessons for a beginning rower to learn to row safely on their own, after which time they can become a member.
Experienced rowers must also contact an instructor for an orientation to our club and our local rowing conditions. The instructor may require a capsize and recovery test or other verification of boatmanship.
For more about membership please visit our membership page.
A special note: We do not have a weekly training program and only a few of our members participate in races. If you are looking to row crew and/or row competitively, contact Los Gatos Rowing Club at http://www.lgrc.org. LGRC has an extensive competitive juniors and masters program and focuses on improving rowing skills. Of course you are free to join both clubs!
