Celebrating 50 years of Community and Rowing

Established in 1975, 2025 marks a monumental year for Mendota Rowing Club. Based in Madison, WI, MRC is celebrating 50 years of community and rowing by raising $50,000 for an 8 person rowing shell! 8 person rowing shells allow larger numbers of people with wider ranges of skills to experience the joy of rowing.

Donations of any size will provide MRC the opportunity to continue offering a safe, inclusive and welcome rowing experience for all. If you are interested in donating, please visit fundraisers for Mendota Rowing Club .For additional information about donating, please contact treasurer@mendotarowingclub.com.
