The club has 60 adult members and 16 junior members. Each year, it competes in 6 to 10 regattas across the Northwest. In addition to competitive rowing, the club welcomes recreational rowers and social members. Rowing instruction is offered to individuals of all ages, from 18 to 75, through Learn to Row programs, which also include sessions for asylum seekers. The club provides rowing experiences for various groups, such as the Women's Institute (WI), and hosts the University of the Third Age (U3A) rowing program. The club uses rowing machines (ergs) to teach the rowing stroke to beginners and to support training for all rowers. These machines are equipped with screens that display stroke rate, time per distance, and other metrics. They approached us as three of the machines required new LCD screens, as they were broken and unusable. They also needed some more lifejackets for new members to use. We were happy to help!
