Eagles Island Community Rowing

 Eagles Island Community Rowing, Inc. is founded as a volunteer-directed, educational, non-profit organization dedicated to the belief that the sport of rowing provides unique opportunities to promote personal and community growth through camaraderie, teamwork, and physical fitness. The group is dedicated to fostering a community that is both welcoming and supportive of adult rowers. EICR offers programs to increase knowledge of water safety, and appreciation for the valuable natural and cultural resources of our region. 

Although we are all willing to sweep row, our current fleet includes only sculls. That means each rower holds two oars - one in each hand.  All sculls are shells, but not every shell is a scull. (Try that tongue twister!)

 We typically row at dawn and near dusk for the lowest winds/waves; this also happens to be the time wildlife is most active. Our retired members can take advantage of good conditions any time of day! After being vetted as a member, you can soak up the silence in a single or join a group in the quad. Either way, there is often coffee and a smile; we love to share flat, "glassy" water.
