The lake may have thawed, as a result, rowing will tentatively resume on Wednesday morning. Rain may have accumulated over the ice - the launch will need to confirm conditions before launching.
The Burnaby Lake Rowing Club (BLRC) rows on the calm waters of Burnaby Lake, in Burnaby, BC - one of the best places to train in singles in North America. Juniors row alongside Senior and Masters athletes. The club hosts the Crofton House School and Sentinel Secondary rowing teams who row with the Burnaby Lake juniors during the off season.
Typical club rowing sessions run at 7:30 a.m. Monday through Friday, and at 8 a.m. on Saturdays, Sundays and Holidays. Schedule variances are posted on the homepage and club calendar. Afternoon rows are offered during the spring, summer and fall for all club members - days and times depend on the season and are posted on the club calendar. To receive updates and news about the club, subscribe to the BLRC Newsletter.
The boathouse predominantly consists of singles and doubles. The focus of the club is to develop elite skills in fine singles.
If you are competent in a 1x and are interested in joining the club to improve your skills, please contact the club captain or coach for the best time to come down.
If you are an experienced sculler looking for private sessions, please contact the coach.
The club does not offer formal Learn-to-Row sessions, however, new scullers do have an opportunity to learn through private lessons. For more information on private lessons, please contact the coach.
See you at the lake!
