What makes our rowing club unique?
We offer just the right balance between
the seclusion and privacy of an expensive camp and the
proximity of a mid-sized city with affordable lodging, restaurants,
and entertainment.
With 15
miles of uninterrupted Flat Water , the Savannah River winds through a combination
of farm country and undisturbed woods for 11 miles downstream and 4 miles upstream past the city. In either direction there is
minimal boat traffic.
Since 2007 : We
have TWO 160 foot brand new
Connect-A-Docks.
This allows us plenty of room for crews to access the water.
Take a Tour of our Boathouse.
 Our comprehensive
facility has a Complete Weight Room with free weights, machines, and
ergs overlooking the river in both directions. And there are
Bathrooms, Showers, and Locker Rooms.
 Teams
can utilize our Club Room upstairs
for video review and team meetings. A television and VCR are
available for use as well as tables and chairs. Rowers can
relax from a deck that overlooks the river from both directions. Coaches can
have daily access
to an
Office
with computer, printer, and DSL internet connection. Wireless
internet is also available.
