Volunteering AT HANLAN


Hanlan is a volunteer-based organization that relies on a variety of committees and individuals to improve and maintain the Club’s grounds, its facility and the Hanlan community. Without volunteers, Hanlan would not exist. We are always in need of more help and open to ideas of how to make our Club better. So, if you have some spare time and want to get involved, please let us know.

Hanlan requires volunteers each rowing season to:

  • help us around the boathouse on “Work Crew” days

  • assist rowers on the docks, act as a coxie, or row in stroke or bow during our Learn-to-Row programs or Try Rowing events

  • help to maintain Club grounds (e.g., weeding, picking up litter, etc.)

  • organize our uniform orders

  • assist with boat repairs and maintenance (Note: Please see the Head Coach for instructions before making any repairs or adjustments to Club equipment.)

  • help us with external relationships (e.g., with Outer Harbour Sailing Federation, etc.)

  • create posts or take photos for our social media channels

  • maintain the Hanlan website

  • plan or assist with Hanlan social events.

Please check our e-newsletter and follow Hanlan on social media to learn about other volunteer opportunities.
