We offer rowing programs for individuals of all ability levels, and morning and evening programs. The team began in 1991 with eight gay runners looking for a cross-training activity, some old rented equipment, and a lot of enthusiasm. It took only two or three years for the team to grow into a cohesive organization that was competing regularly and ready to make the commitment to purchase racing sh
ells and other equipment. DCSRC has been a proud member of the Anacostia Community Boathouse (ACBA) since 2004, and rows on the Anacostia River. DCSRC holds fast to the conviction that GLBT rowers can be formidable athletes and competitors. Our goal is for DCSRC to be a platform for competitive success and to increase the profile of GLBT rowers in the rowing community while promoting a spirit of camaraderie amongst our members. Our programs are open to all rowers, and we aspire foremost to create a safe and supportive environment for GLBT rowers and their allies.
