Penn Athletic Club Rowing Association

The Penn Athletic Club Rowing Association was established in 1871 to stimulate and foster interest in the sport of rowing among amateurs as individuals and in clubs, colleges, high schools, and industries. The Collaborative helped the Association develop a plan to renovate and expand its historic boat house to create accessibility for all, improve member amenities, take full advantage of beautiful riverfront views, and enhance event space to generate revenue.
