The Vanouver Rowing Club membership is separated into two categories. Active Members are those who are associated with one of the sporting sections (Rowing, Rugby, Yachting or Field Hockey) of the club. Social Members are not directly associated with any of the sections and are not entitled to vote at club meetings.

Membership dues are comprised of two main components:

  • Club Dues which are set by the Board of Directors and apply equally to all members. These dues allow members access to the weight room, showers and club lounges.
  • Sports Section Affiliation Fees which are set by the individual Section Executives. Theses dues allow members access to the sport specific areas and equipment.

    • MEMERSHIP SEASONS:

    Rowing - From April 1 ends Mar 31

    Rugby, Field Hockey & Yachting - From Oct 1 - Sep 30

    Social - Annual to the month joined.
