Welcome to the LARC sweep rowing program.
Our club and how it is structured: LARC is a sweep rowing club with a fleet of three coxed 4s and four coxed 8s. Our club does not have a boathouse or facilities such as locker rooms, erg rooms, etc. We are simply a group of competitive and recreational masters rowers that store our shells on the racks on the beach. We do launch from the water as there is not a dock.
Operations-wise, we do things a bit differently than many other clubs. LARC has an individual captain for each crew that goes out. Each captain is responsible for creating lineups for their weekly row. The club has no employees such as coaches or coxswains. Some boats rotate rowers in the coxswain seat and others have a dedicated volunteer coxswains with collegiate experience. A few crews hire outside freelance coaches and pass the cost on to the rowers. If you are invited to row with a crew that pays for freelance coaching then the captain will notify you of this. This is not your traditional boathouse operation, but rowers enjoy the benefit of being able to row with their preferred crew based on priorities. The club does not make any lineup for any boat.
As an experienced rower, you are eligible to take advantage of one week of free rowing with our club. Should you choose to become a member after the free week, the fee is $150 per quarter. All participants at LARC must be over the age of 18.
Rows typically occur 5-6AM or 6-7AM on the weekdays and 6:00-7:30AM or 7-8:30AM on the weekends.
