Welcome to the Norwalk River Rowing Association (NRRA) -- Fairfield County’s oldest community rowing center which promotes a lifelong passion for the sport of rowing - regardless of age or income.
 
Join our Adult programs which range from Learn To Row to our Gold Medal winning Racing Team.

We have Youth programs for all ages including National Championship caliber Racing Teams, Recreational Teams and fun Middle School programs.
 
The NRRA, as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, offers a variety of programs, including Reach Out and Row (ROAR). Reach Out and Row is the umbrella which encompasses all outreach programs organized by Norwalk River Rowing. These varied programs are presented to ensure all members of the community, in particular under-privileged youth, have an opportunity to experience the benefits of rowing - increased fitness, team work, leadership, self-esteem, respect, and goal-setting.
