Capital Rowing Club is actively seeking partners to help us ensure that rowing is available to all who are interested regardless of income. Sponsorship of this volunteer-managed organization shows your support for:
- youth athletics and academics for Junior rowers from all DC wards
- active use of the Anacostia River
- rowing as a multi-generational sport, life-long fitness and competition
- adaptive competition for rowers with disabilities
- community development of the Capitol Hill neighborhood
Capital seeks sponsors throughout the year. Our four annual events offer sponsors the opportunity to engage multiple times to local and non-local audiences.
