Join us at the christening of our two new 2x’s on Sunday June 7, 2026 following the final race of the CSSRA Championship (~3:30pm) at the RGBC Boathouse!
The event will be in conjunction with our partners at Ridley College who will also be christening two new boats.
Monika served as the RGBC president for over a decade. She is also a trailblazer in the sport, as a member of Canada's Olympic Rowing Team at the 1976 games, the first to include women's rowing. Her husband, Colin, is a fellow Olympian, representing Great Britain at the 1980 games. Both Monika and Colin have been long time members of RGBC and donated many hours volunteering and coaching at the club.
Brian spent many years coaching at RGBC. He was the kind of coach who always put his athletes above himself and was willing to coach anyone who asked. He was a quiet individual, but when he spoke, it was always with sound advice to better those he worked with.
