If anyone is interested in hanging out with Olympic rowers this summer......

Dear ONEC Members,

On Sunday, March 15, the Quebec Indoor Rowing Championship will take place in Waterloo, QC, and we would like to invite the ONEC community to come take on the challenge!

📍 Location: Centre athlétique La Taule – 95 Picken Street, Waterloo, QC

The rowing ergometer is already well known in the world for testing power, endurance, and mental toughness. This competition is a great opportunity for your athletes to challenge themselves alongside other performance-driven participants in a dynamic and motivating atmosphere.

Several distances and categories will be offered so that everyone can participate, from recreational to competitive levels. It’s a welcoming, accessible, and highly stimulating event for anyone who enjoys a physical challenge.

We would be delighted to have members of your club join us. Please find enclosed the link to register: https://cqas2026.aviron-quebec.ca

Food for thought while you erg this winter or row while on vacation.

Rowing friends! If you have ever complained about the docks being unsafe and/or too much work to maintain then we have good news! The club has purchased new-to-us docks in the style/material of the NCC docks. They will be delivered in the spring! Unfortunately now we need to pay for them. :(

One way you can help is to make a donation to the newly set up infrastructure fund. Side bonus it comes with a tax receipt! https://www.ontariosportnetwork.ca/nstf-projects/361-ottawa-new-edinburgh-club
