Our new home provides opportunities for:

• Men , women, and para-athletes to come together in a true “One Team” environment, where the best of the best can propel one another toward success.
• Coaches, support staff, and experts to work together, share knowledge, and drive progress.

Rowing Canada Aviron has secured a permanent home on Quamichan Lake, a protected body of water offering ideal, year-round rowing conditions. This new National Training Centre represents the culmination of years of vision and dedication, creating a world-class environment where Canadian rowers can thrive.

This is more than a facility, it’s a home for Canadian rowing. A place where athletes can train in conditions that mirror international competition, where fair selection and excellence are supported by the best possible environment.

Join Silken Laumann and Wayne Pommen in shaping the future of Canadian rowing—your gift to the National Training Centre will be matched, doubling your impact.

What makes this project truly special is the spirit behind it. Alumni, Olympians, and supporters from across the country are coming together to invest in the next generation. As one Silken Laumann shared, “What gripped me was this idea of us as alumni reaching out to younger rowers – rowers who are on the path that we were once on. This new training facility gives our team something they have never had: a world-class facility on a dedicated body of water. Everyone has different capacities to give, but all alumni can signal through a gift that they want to be part of the success of our current and future athletes.”

Your support, no matter the amount, sends an important message to your National Team!
