About
Norcal Crew is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to the development of youth through the sport of rowing. We introduce athletes to the water with camps and instructional programs for middle school students, while training over 100 high school athletes for competition on the national level.
What I’m Raising Money For
Over the past two years, Norcal has nearly doubled in size. We have been working hard to provide the equipment our rowers need to train, and our coaches need to effectively help us in our training. The erg-a-thon is our chance each year to support these efforts. Our goal is to row at least one million meters on our rowing machines and raise $80,000, to bring in new oars, rowing machines, more boats for our athletes, and more launches for coaches.
Why You Should Give
Your donation helps to allow Norcal Crew to continue its goal of not only training athletes like me for high level competition, but also to open our doors to any athlete who wants to be a part of our team. We are currently able to provide a great team experience to anyone, regardless of their athletic background, natural ability, or financial situation, while still winning national championships in each of the past four years. We need equipment and support to be able to continue to provide this opportunity to anyone who may want it in the future.

Sponsorship levels
$50,000
Sponsor a new truck!
Over the past three years, Norcal has grown to the point where we take two trailers to every regatta, and one of the trailers is the largest vehicle of it's class allowed on the road by the DOT. We need a new truck capable of pulling this trailer safely and efficiently, so that our equipment and coaches can get to the race course safely.
$5,000
Sponsor a new engine for a coaching launch
In order to instruct, train, and keep their crews safe, coaches need launches with working engines. We are replacing old engines, and bringing in new launches to to be able to handle more coaches and more athletes.
$3,500
Sponsor a new set of oars
Allow us to purchase a new set of cutting edge racing oars from Concept II, the leading oar manufacturer in the US. A full set of oars allows us to pass our current oars down the ranks, so that all of our athletes benefit. A full set contains 8 built-to-order oars. Each will be permanently dedicated to a name of your choosing, and a picture will be provided of your athletes with the new oars.
