Our Club

Commencement Bay Rowing Club is committed to serving the South Sound rowing community with the highest quality rowing programs. CBRC began with a single four-oared racing shell in 1992. It has grown become the largest rowing club in theSouth Puget Sound area with programs for juniors (high school students), masters (post college) and adaptive (physically challenged) rowers. Our goal is to provide the highest quality instruction and competition for rowers of all ages.

The CBRC boathouse is conveniently located south of Tacoma off I-5 on beautiful, tree-lined American Lake. The boathouse was built through the generosity of Tacoma area foundations, businesses and individuals, in support of youth and community rowing. It is located in Lakewood's Harry Todd Park. Since opening in 1997 the boathouse has been home to CBRC and collegiate crews from Pacific Lutheran University and University of Puget Sound. With four active boat bays, a work bay, and banquet and meeting facilities, this modern boathouse provides South Sound rowers with access to some of the best rowing water in the Northwest.

CBRC Spring 2011

Spring 2011

CBRC completed a successful junior spring racing season with two boats qualifying and competing at Nationals in steamy Oakridge Tennessee. Congratulations to rowers B.Johnson and J.Morton for their second place finish in the men's pair B final. Congratulations also to K. Brown and H. Drangsholdt for their third place finish in the girl's pair B final. Outstanding finishes after a great season of juniors competition in which CBRC competed successfully regattas thoughout the Northwest from Eugene, Oregon to Brentwood, Canada.

The CBRC masters will finish out the spring season June 24 - 26 with a trip to the regional regatta. Good luck masters: row hard, row fast!

The oars gave me power,
but also taught me humility.
