Welcome

Based at Caldecotte Lake on the south side of the town, Milton Keynes Rowing Club (MKRC) shares its access and clubhouse with the Milton Keynes Sailing Club and Canoe Club.

We have an active Summer and Winter Programme of races, events and training schedules, weekends and mid-week, as well as social functions. This covers both water training (both rowing and sculling) and land based training (circuits and rowing machines).

Membership is varied and we encourage all levels of rowing ability, from experienced rowers to complete newcomers to the sport. We welcome people of all ages, now including a thriving junior section. We also welcome supporters who perhaps may wish to take their rowing a little less seriously or just help with the club's activities.

So just come on down to the club during one of the training sessions where you will receive a friendly welcome or contact us by e-mail.

Learn-To-Row course

(NEW) The first round of our new Learn-To-Row course has been a huge success, and increased interest has meant that we are pleased to offer some new dates. Two new courses will commence on Saturday 27 June and Monday 29 June. Each course will continue for 8 sessions. For those of you who have already contacted us, Karen will contact you with further information.

Congratulations!

Congratulations to the Women's Crew 1: Charlene, Jo, Lindy and Steph for winning the 500m sprint at the Peterborough Regatta (out of 12 crews). They also came 1st in the Bedford Head and 4th in the Metropolitan Regatta on Dorney Lake. Congratulations also to Rob and Pierre for de-novicing at Peterborough in the Vet A Double Scull.
