In 2022, Hanlan Boat Club’s Board of Directors adopted a new 2022-2026 Strategic Plan. Our new boathouse - built in 2019 with significant upgrades in 2022 - has increased our capacity to welcome new members. Our plan is to expand our club, while staying true to our commitment to keeping rowing financially accessible. Our goal is to offer a variety of member and non-member programs for Torontonians of all ages.

We are also excited by the opportunities created by the redevelopment of the Toronto Portlands (portlandsto.ca). There is already a new flatwater river valley in our backyard and we can’t wait to invite more local residents, workers and visitors to our club as the area grows.

Hanlan’s vision, mission, values and strategic directions as set out in our Strategic Plan, are as follows:

OUR VISION

To be the place where everyone loves to row.

OUR MISSION

To inspire and support everyone on their rowing journey.

OUR VALUES

Welcome everyone

Care for our future

Pursue excellence

Be team players

Have fun together

Support our community
