Just a heads up that Berkeley Paddling & Rowing Club will be hosting a New Years Day 10K Time Trial on (wait for it…) Wednesday, January 1, 2025. No pre-registration needed. All craft welcome! Start times will begin at 9:00, last start (for timing) will be at 10:00.

If using GPS to find the Club, enter Kenneth Hayes Bopathouse. Anything else will take you to the wrong place (and you can't get here from there...)

Hope to see some of you then!

The K4 rides again!

For the funky, well-loved park by I-80, much depends on the water quality of the artificial lagoon, known lately for high f***l bacteria levels and marine critter die-offs. Can the city pull off a lasting fix?

Assuming that the wind continues to cooperate, we are looking to relaunch our Tuesday Surf Sessions in Berkeley on April 23.
These are "Out & Back", with NO Shuttle. Options for newer surfers as well as more experienced paddlers.

If new to these sessions, please email [email protected] with any questions.

Club Boats are available for takeaway use, as long as you have proper transport. Requests for takeaway should be submitted here: https://tinyurl.com/BPRC-Offsite
