Be Part of Pacific Invite Regatta & Grow the Our Rowing Community!
Andre Kleijn
Hi Everyone,
This Saturday, March 7, Pacific Rowing Club will host the Pacific Invite Regatta at Lake Merced — bringing together athletes, coaches, and families from across our region for a full day of racing and community.
Events like this are more than just races. They are opportunities to grow the sport of rowing, create meaningful experiences for athletes, and strengthen the connections across clubs and communities that make our sport special.
One of the most impactful ways to be part of that experience is by volunteering.
Whether you are a PRC parent, junior, master rower, alum, board member, friend, member of the California Dragon Boaters Association, or part of a visiting rowing team, volunteering offers a unique chance to step behind the scenes and contribute to something bigger than any one race.
Many of the roles are fun, active, and close to the racing — from dock operations and course support to hospitality and event logistics. No experience is required, and our team will provide guidance and support.
Volunteer Sign-Up: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0544A9A92FA5FFC07-62543211-pacific
We are also requesting that visiting teams consider providing 1–3 volunteers to help support the shared success of the event.
