Log Book Sculling
​
Many rowers take advantage of "log book sculling" at TRRA. Community members who have passed their TRRA Sculling Certification may row a club owned boat or their own equipment. All logbook scullers are required to use the iCrew app to check out onto the water and back in off the water. Failure to log in and out of your rowing sessions can result in suspension of launching privileges. Please help ensure your own safety, and help manage and maintain TRRA equipment.
To participate in log book sculling, you must be sculling certified. There are two ways to become certified at TRRA: (Non-members please contact admin@threeriversrowing.org for other options):
-
Complete private sculling lessons, or...
-
Pass a sculling certification test by demonstrating your rowing experience. The cost to test out is $75 for an individual, $120 for semi-private (Free until 30 June 2022). Certifications can only be done in Zone 1 of the safety matrix and when the water temperature is above 60°F/15.5°c.
-
Sculling/Pair Certification overview and certification checklist are on the SAFETY page.

Adult Rowing Teams
Three Rivers Rowing Association has one of the largest adult rowing communities in the country. Our programs provide a structured rowing environment that focus on rowing skill development, race opportunities and, most importantly, a strong sense of community. Our adult rowers embrace the TRRA vision of being leaders, both on and off the water and have the race results and community engagement receipts to prove it.
Our adult rowing programs run annually beginning in April and are open to TRRA Community Members. Practice schedules and racing opportunities vary by program (see below). All of our Adult Rowing programs provide an inclusive and wholistic rowing experience and are designed to provide a structure in which each athlete will have the opportunity to maximize their potential and reach their goals.
