Support U.P. Rowing

The Upper Peninsula Community Rowing Club, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to fostering community through rowing in Marquette, Michigan. Since 2004, our all-volunteer team has provided USRowing-certified coaching and high-quality equipment to both youth and adult rowers. We are committed to providing safe, inclusive access to outdoor recreation on beautiful Lake Superior. This is made possible by the generosity of our volunteers and supporters like you.

Rowing is a unique sport: It is low-impact, exercises every major muscle group, and fosters teamwork and connection. U.P. Rowing offers opportunities for co-ed, multi-generational fitness, collaboration, fellowship, and fun. Our programs have helped high school rowers discover a lifelong passion—some have gone on to row in college and even compete at the Summer World University Games.

Your donation helps make all of this possible. Contributions support essential costs such as equipment maintenance and acquisition, venue and regatta expenses, safety equipment, operational and insurance costs, specialized safety gear, and other program needs. Every gift—large or small—directly impacts our ability to keep rowing accessible, welcoming, and affordable for our community. By donating, you’re not just supporting a rowing club—you’re investing in health, community, youth development, and a shared love of Lake Superior.

Thank you for supporting U.P. Rowing. We truly appreciate you.
