Cape Coral Rowing Club had recently relocated from its home of 15 years in Cape Harbour to a new location in the NW Cape. The same week we were set to reopen operations with a Youth Learn to Row Event, Hurricane Ian plowed through and decimated our outdoor facility. So, we are back in full rebuild mode. We are having our damage assessed and working on our rebuilding plans already. We will keep you posted here as we move through this process. Thanks to all of you who have been so supportive with fundraising and sweat equity. This will definitely take a village, but our rowing community has shown its resilience time and time again. This time will be no different!!!!
The below link is a photo album of the aftermath of the storm.
We've started a fundraiser to help us with rebuilding. These funds are intended to cover all the things our Inland Marine insurance policy does not (there are many!). Your help is a massive blessing to us and so very much appreciated!!

What is rowing? Is it easy to learn? And would someone want to keep doing this activity for a lifetime, as many of us do? It's a mindful, thoughtful sport that can evoke a team camaraderie within you when rowing with a crew, or a sense of peace when rowing your own boat on calm water. It's something that can help you achieve a level of fitness you never though possible, yet it's a low-impact activity which doesn't tear up the body or joints. There's a learning curve that just keeps on challenging you forever, yet engages you to almost the point of addiction.
