Our spring season has begun, but it’s not too late to get started with rowing. All high school age students are welcome to come down and hop in a boat. We practice each day, after school, at our boathouse in Newport, KY. Directions are available here. You can learn more on our getting started page.
For more information please contact boy’s coach Greg Hull (greg@cjrc.us) or girl’s coach Andy Piepmeier (andy@cjrc.us).
CJRC Summer Camps are an easy way for Middleschool age students to try rowing. We offer week-long, non-competitive camps. Many kids have so much fun during the first week that they sign-up for a second! The rowers are coached by the CJRC coaching staff and by our Midwest Champion high school rowers.
Learn more about the CJRC Summer Camps here.

CJRC maintains a boathouse in Newport, KY, at the western-most end of Riverboat Row. We also have a winter training facility beneath the Montgomery Inn Boathouse, located downtown.
During the Fall and Spring, practice takes place at the Newport facility, with the teams moving indoors for inclement weather. Our winter training camp happens at the Montgomery Inn.

Maybe they were just typical Midwestern kids with nothing to do. Maybe they all came to try it out, splash around in the water for a while, and call it a day. Maybe the baseball field or the basketball court or the swimming pool didn’t feel quite right.
Maybe that’s how it all started.
But with the sun’s reflection dancing on the Licking River and the Cincinnati Junior Rowing Club coxswain calling out yet another power 10 during the longest of afternoon practices, it’s all too clear that the beginning doesn’t matter.
The Cincinnati Jr. Rowing Club is a competitive rowing team, open to any high school student in the greater Cincinnati area. There are separate boys and girls teams, totaling around 125 rowers from area schools. We offer competitive fall and spring seasons, as well as a winter conditioning program. No prior experience is necessary and getting started is easy. CJRC is a non-profit 501.3c, all donations are tax-deductible. Our mission is to provide boys and girls in the greater Cincinnati area with the opportunity to learn to row and compete at a national level, while nurturing the value of commitment, development of character, and a life-long passion for excellence.
