We Couldn’t Do It Without You.

Brockport Community Rowing is powered entirely by volunteers. From sweeping the docks and washing towels to building racks and supporting events, everything we do is made possible by members and community supporters who give their time.

Volunteer With BCR

We ask that all members volunteer in some way throughout the season. Family and friends are always welcome to help as well — the more hands, the better.

If you have experience working on rowing shells — including riggers, seats, shoes, or cox speaker systems — and would be willing to assist with boat maintenance, we’d especially love to hear from you.

Volunteer opportunities are available all season long. Some are one-time events, while others are ongoing. We periodically send out calls for help for specific projects and activities.
