The Weyfarers Story
Weyfarers was founded in September
2000 as an offshoot of
Weybridge Rowing Club, with the aim of
promoting "Rowing for All". The objectives of Weyfarers are
- to teach and promote rowing and sculling for fitness
and recreation
- to provide opportunities to participate in
recreational rowing by provision of courses and
facilities
- to organise tours and events
- to foster relations with other clubs both in the UK
and abroad
- to develop appreciation and understanding of the
river environment.
What do we do?
- Regular outings are on Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday mornings. Members are encouraged to
patronise the bar of Weybridge Rowing Club afterwards!
During the summer, members can also row in the evenings
by arrangement. You don't have be part of a fixed crew,
just turn up and join in!
- Day trips and mini-tours, starting and/or finishing
at Weybridge, with a picnic or pub lunch
- Longer tours of 2-4 days on various stretches of
water in the UK, staying overnight in hotels or guest
houses
- International tours with our rowing friends in other
countries
- Beginners rowing courses (adults only - juniors can join courses organised by Weybridge RC)
- And, of course, being more social than your average
rower, we organise social events. Members can also join
in events organised by Weybridge Rowing Club.
