A history of rowing

The Coeur d’Alene Rowing Club had its beginnings in the 1980s, growing from a community program at North Idaho College. In the late 1990s, it became known as The Coeur d’Alene Rowing Association and gained official recognition. In 2000, the club moved to Fernan Lake, where it continues to thrive, offering rowing opportunities to a diverse range of individuals, including masters, college and high school rowers. The club actively participates in local and national regattas. The CDA Rowing club is driven by a shared love for rowing, fostering a growing community and fueling the sport’s development in North Idaho.

Rowing is the ultimate metaphor for life. You get out of it what you put into it!
