CSC - FORTROSE COMMUNITY ROWING |
|
The club has an active coastal rowing group. We regularly row our club built St Ayles skiffs, Chanonry Maid and Silver Darling, from the clubhouse at Fortrose Harbour. We also attend regattas and a variety of social rowing occasions. With four oars and a Cox there are great opportunities for all ages to keep fit and active all year round.
UPCOMING EVENTS
Beauly Firth Row
New date Saturday 25 August.
Long row from Beauly to Fortrose as an exploratory for a bigger event with other clubs. The plan is to put in at Beauly and row down to Fortrose on the ebb with a refreshment stop and potential crew change at N Kessock. Sign up for a great opportunity to explore the firth.
Findhorn Regatta
Saturday 29 September, 12:00 to 17:00 tbc
We had great fun at this regatta last year. It's part of Findhorn Bay Arts Festival on so plenty to do and a ceilidh at night. We need plenty of rowers so we can compete in as many races as possible, so sign up soon.
