Recreational and competitive classes, including the opportunity to compete on nationally recognized racing teams, Adaptive and Veterans programs, and youth clinics taught by college coaches are offered to everyone from pre-teens to retirees. The Riverfront Recapture Rowing Program is over 25 years old and since 2002 has operated out of the Boathouse in Hartford’s historic Riverside Park on the Connecticut River. Each year since 1998, we host the Head of the Riverfront Regatta in early October. Learn more about the rowing programs and Riverfront Recapture at riverfront.org
