RRC Volunteer Information

The RRC Firewood Sale is in its 30th year of operation and constitutes a major fund-raiser for our Club. We sell only seasoned birch, delivering in Regina only during the weekends of September and October. We not only deliver, but also stack wood outside for customers. We ask that RRC members consider recruiting family members to help with the delivery, as this helps to ensure that we have enough people. The funds raised by the firewood sale help fund our club operations as well as allows us to purchase new equipment and repair older equipment. We have many loyal regular customers as well as many new inquiries for our firewood. We need club members to sign up so we can fulfill our orders. We would hate to lose our customer base for this great fundraiser for the club if we cannot fulfill our orders. As part of your membership, there is an expectation that you will sign up and work the following number of shifts:

  • Annual Membership - 4 shifts

  • On Water Membership - 2 shifts

  • Indoor Membership* - 2 shifts 

Please note that anyone who is planning on registering for the Indoor Membership (October 2022-March 2023) and participating in any winter training (Junior, Senior, Masters), you are expected to sign up for those two shifts as well as your On Water Membership 2 shifts.  You are welcome to have a friend or family member work the shift in your place (or sign up for a shift with you to ensure we fill all the shifts). 

If you would like to sign up for firewood delivery, we will be delivering on:

  • Dates for 2023 TBD

Please note the following:

  • When you sign up, please indicate if you have a person working for you

  • Ensure that you arrive 15 minutes early for your shift

  • Please dress in a long sleeve shirt and clothes that can get dirty and bring work gloves.

  • Our woodlot is located on Winnipeg Street between Arcola & Dewdney across from SUDS, Auto Cleaning

  • If you sign-up and cannot work your shift, it is your responsibility to find a replacement

The Regina Rowing Club is a group of people working together to make rowing accessible, affordable and fun. We exist due to the wealth of talent and energy of our membership.  

 Please remember that their time volunteering takes away from their time rowing.  It is important that we respect the efforts of our volunteers.

 In order to keep our club operating, all members are required to contribute service hours to work done throughout the season. Whether it is a club cleanup, contributing at regattas, coxing clinics, ergometer maintenance, fundraising or special events, it is the responsibility of every member to contribute to the enrichment of our organization both on and off the water.

 It is a great way to give back to your sport and to meet fellow club members. Volunteer and service opportunities are posted regularly throughout the season. All members are requested to contact the Board of Directors if you would like to participate in any aspect of the operation of the club.
