Donations Make a Difference

Over the years, donations to Conibear Rowing Club have helped the club build its rowing program and encourage many women to row and develop as athletes. Funds raised have enabled Conibear to acquire needed shells, oars and other equipment to serve a growing number of participants in novice classes, regular practices and regattas.

Thanks to the tireless efforts and generous gifts from club members and former rowers, Conibear is now the proud owner of the Synergy (eight), Corazon (eight), Kulshan (four/quad), Grace (pair/double), Viva la Chick (straight quad) and two new pair doubles (Jinx and Jule).

Donations also help Conibear reach beyond its membership to encourage younger women as rowers and athletes. With proceeds from its annual fundraising, Conibear donates to a scholarship fund for the University of Washington Husky team. Because of this partnership, Conibear has subsequently become a place for many young Husky graduates to develop professional coaching skills, under the guidance of head coach Sara Lopez.
