HOW TO SIGN UP

Step 1: Create an account on Boathouse Connect. This free app and website is the way to review membership options, arrange payment, and gain access to everything BCR offers. Be sure to select BCR as your home club.

Step 2: Review the Membership Options. Note: The only club participants who do not need to pay a membership are coxswains (all fees are waived), college program participants (purchase "2024 Collegiate Summer Program”), and participants of 2024 Learn to Row programs.

Step 3: Row on your own or with a BCR Program. BCR members can use club equipment to row on their own, but this requires appropriate certification by a BCR coach or qualified individual. The club offers a variety of sweep rowing and sculling coached programs for all ability levels. Review these on our Programs Page, and sign up for the Groups in Boathouse COnnect

Note on Parks and Recreation Facility Entry Fees: For any rower entering during normal Reservoir hours, an additional Boulder Facility Entry fee will need to be paid. This fee will also need to be paid for Sunday practices for all athletes, as practices will occur during open hours.

You can pay at the gate, or there are multiple options to choose from including monthly, yearly, or a Reservoir Only Fee. See their Fee page here: https://bouldercolorado.gov/reservoir-gate-hours-and-fees

There are also Parks and Recreation SCHOLARSHIPS. Visit this page for more information: https://bouldercolorado.gov/services/parks-and-recreation-financial-aid-program
