FUNDRAISING

We run fundraisers throughout the year and need volunteers to help. Please review the opportunities below and let us know where you'd like lend a hand. You can always reach us at FriendsGlastonburyRowing@gmail.com.

Annual Ergathon

 

Support the program and your athlete

Beyond funding from the GHS Athletic Department, the crew program needs over $65,000 per year to cover costs for items such as shells (racing boats), oars, training ergs, and safety equipment. That is about $540 per athlete.  Please help us achieve this goal in our primary fundraising event! Donations are still welcomed.

Our annual Ergathon was Saturday, September 20, 2025 at the Boathouse.
