Hear about what MURC has been up to while we gear up for regattas!
Dear Miami University Rowing Club Alumni and Family,
Regatta season is finally here! We got lucky in March with some warm days that let us get out on the water super early. That means we get just a few more practices under our belt before we have a busy regatta schedule this spring season.
We have regattas back to back to back starting with ICRI in Farmer City, IL on April 15th. This will be the first sprint regatta for all of our novices and we are very excited for all their hard work this year to pay off!
With RedHawk Sprints coming up on April 22nd we have been working hard to get everything organized and set up. We started to get the course in the water last week and it has been great to see things starting to fall into place.
Our team can't wait to go compete and see all the friends and family of MURC at RHS this month!

RedHawk Sprints
Please join us for this event and enjoy the races and food trucks in the park during the day and a bar rental at Skipper’s Top Deck for trivia and prizes that evening at 8pm!
We will also be selling some of our used oars this weekend for anyone who wants to take home a little piece of MURC.
To the right is the tentative race schedule for the day - times will be posted once solidified.
Our publicity chair, Emma, set up a day with a photographer on campus to do a media day with our team. Everyone got some amazing pictures and had a ton of fun!
Ergathon
We completed another successful Ergathon fundraiser April 2nd and 40 of our rowers completed a 20,000 meter erg piece to raise money through pledges. The event was planned and live streamed by our external fundraiser, Stephanie, and we are so thankful to everyone who donated or cheered us on!
