To better serve our members, and enhance our fitness and competitive programs, Halifax Rowing Club needs to replace and upgrade its fleet. By supporting the HRC Equipment Fund you can help to make this happen!! We are looking to raise $45,000 over the next 3 years!

In past years, HRC has used grants to fund the purchase of new and used shells. We have also borrowed funds from financial institutions, partnered with RowNS, and used monies raised through fees charged to our members.

And while this approach has allowed us to purchase some new-to-us shells, and fund necessary maintenance, we need an influx of funds to replace our oldest, most well-used shells and purchase additional new shells, oars and other equipment needed to meet the needs of our growing youth and adult programs.
