All you need is water. Read more about our history...

Learn to Row!
Every spring, Rocky Mountain Rowing Club produces a Learn-to-Row program for beginners. This year's program is right around the corner!
Our program knows no age limits. Rowing is accessible - at all levels of competition - to individuals in their early teenage years through to their nineties! We'll show you the ropes, from the rowing machine to the finish line. And no previous experience is necessary.
Take a look at our Learn to Row Overview and sign up today.
Volunteers needed for Learn to Row!
All hands on deck! We need experienced rowers, coxswains, and coaches to help with the novices. Enter your contact information at the LTR SignUpGenius page. You will receive reminder emails about the sessions you signed up for. Note that we prefer that coaches pick a rowing style and commit to an entire weekend to provide consistency and historical knowlege for each Crew.
Combination Change
The combination will change on the boathouse on Tuesday, April 3rd around the middle of the day. The new combination is now available to current 2012 members on <About RMRC>, <The Boathouse> and <boathouse access> tabs.
Mile High Sprints Send Four Qualifiers to Cambridge

After a full day of racing, organizers had to choose the four qualifiers with the widest margins to receive complementary airfare to the CRASH-B World Championships. When the dust settled, the following four had won qualification: Ted Noyes, Greg Ruckman, Peter Francis and Joanne Marriot. Additional qualifiers were Jackie Snyder, who gave up her ride due to a scheduling conflict, and Kendal Chase.
Results are attached below. Thanks to Jody Rutz for spearheading organization and all the volunteers who made the day such a success!
