Our Story

The Cleveland Rowing Foundation (CRF) owns and operates the property and facilities at Rivergate Park for the benefit of our member organizations, programs, and the Cleveland community. CRF hosts over 1,500 high school, collegiate and adult athletes on the banks of the Cuyahoga River in downtown Cleveland.

We provide the platform, but it is our member organizations — scholastic (Saint Ignatius High School, Shaker Heights High School, and Cleveland Metropolitan School District) and college teams (Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland State University, John Carroll University) and the adult-focused Western Reserve Rowing Association — who row on it. They organize and operate programs that run the gamut from Learn to Row sessions for newcomers to highly competitive scholastic, collegiate and masters teams that race at the top regattas in the United States. We’re proud of their success and happy to do whatever we can to help them achieve it. That includes preparing coaches, providing a good place for year round training and creating a culture of safety and respect where rowers can reach their potential.
