The Thunder Bay Rowing Club: Over a Century of Rowing Excellence

For more than 100 years, the Thunder Bay Rowing Club (TBRC) has been a cornerstone of our community — inspiring a passion for rowing and building lifelong skills for athletes of all ages. As one of Thunder Bay’s oldest sports clubs, TBRC has proudly developed national-level competitors, introduced countless youth to the sport, and offered recreational rowing opportunities that bring people together on the water.

To keep TBRC strong and sustainable for the next generation, we are focusing on three key priorities: hiring a dedicated coach, renewing our fleet of racing shells, and making vital improvements to our clubhouse. These investments will help us grow our programs, make rowing more accessible, and ensure we continue to offer a top-quality experience for all rowers — from first-time novices to seasoned competitors.
