The recent success of the club has been made possible with access to the Upper Waitemata Harbour. The club currently utilises an old shed in Greenhithe, which provides boat storage for long distance training on calm water.

Throughout its history, the club has thrived when it has modernised its facilities and equipment. This is why we have created the NSRC Building Fund. With your assistance, we will be able to construct a new North Harbour Rowing Centre on the Upper Harbour (which will replace the existing shed).

Why is it named the “North Harbour Rowing Centre”?

North Shore Rowing Club serves an area much larger than just the North Shore. The entire North Harbour Region, including the areas of Rodney, the Hibiscus Coast and the North Shore are served by the club. Many schools based in the wider North Harbour Region also make use of the club’s facilities to provide access to rowing. The North Harbour Rowing Centre will truly be a regional facility and a centre of excellence for rowing across the entire North Harbour region.

This new building will create a larger space for the club’s operations, enabling us to house more boats and increase the number of members we are able to support. A modern facility will enable an environment that is safer for our members.

What will the new Rowing Centre look like?

The North Harbour Rowing Centre will be located in Greenhithe on the site of North Shore Rowing Club’s existing shed. Although the new North Harbour Rowing Centre has a near identical footprint to the existing shed, it will have a second level, providing additional space for both boat storage and training facilities.

How can you support us?

The NSRC Building Fund has been set up specifically to fund the construction of the new rowing centre.

There are a number of ways to recognize the generosity of those individuals and businesses which will assist us in building the club’s legacy. These are listed below.

Gifts to the Building Fund can be made by completing this form.

Gifts to the club are held in a specific Building Fund account.

NSRC is a registered charity, and all cash donations are tax deductible for NZ tax purposes.

Given the nature of this project, please contact us if your donation is able to be in construction materials or services as this support contributes towards the target.

All donations of $1,000 or greater will be recognised on “The Legacy Wall”, which will be made up of donor’s bricks in the new rowing centre.

The NSRC Building Fund aims to raise $1.2 million. This is a big target, but we owe it to our future generations.
