We are a community rowing club (nonprofit 501 3 (c)) based out of the new Kenmore Public Boathouse located at Rhododendron Park, along the Sammamish River near the public boat launch in Kenmore, Washington. (Mapping address at right)
We offer adult rowing for participants who range from brand-new to experienced. We also offer youth camps in the summer.
KCRC shares the Kenmore Public Boathouse with the Northshore School District’s high school crew program. This spring, North Creek, Bothell, Woodinville, and Ingelmoor High Schools have teams out on the water from March-May.
We have an AMAZING new boathouse, and while the facility has been constructed and is in full use, the project is not yet complete. Help secure this top-notch facility for athletes in decades to come. Join the Boathouse Fundraising Committee!
