Support BCR's Mission: Rowing for Every Child

Those of us lucky enough to row at BCR know the joy of swing when a rowing crew are moving in sync. We know the full-body workout that rowing gives us. And we share a love of being outside on beautiful Lake Onota.

Parents of rowers know their kids' joy and excitement when they come home from practice all lit up, awake, strong, fully in their bodies.

Berkshire Community Rowing makes it all possible. And you know making it possible costs money.

We have another, higher purpose at BCR which is to bring rowing to a part of our Berkshire community that may not see themselves as fitting into the sport of rowing. Perhaps they see rowing as an elite, collegiate sport, or maybe they don’t know anything about rowing at all. We want them to know about it. We want them to give it a try, and to see themselves as belonging to our crew. We don't want money to stand in the way, and we give scholarships to any family who needs one.

In 2025, we are doing all we can to realize this mission, and you can make a difference here. Your donation will help fund our scholarship program so that any Berkshire county child can join the BCR crew. Please help us make that possible.
