Sudbury Rowing Club 2016 Programs
One of our favourite things about a Sudbury summer is the fact that we are literally surrounded by lakes! 330 lakes to be exact. If you are looking to get out on the water this summer, you need to check out the Sudbury Rowing Club. The Sudbury Rowing Club is a not for profit organization which is run solely by volunteers who are dedicated to the sport of rowing. They recently moved into their new location at the Northern Water Sports Centre!
