Leetsdale Curragh Club takes 3rd place overall at 2026 Philadelphia Regatta @ Philly Celtic Curragh Club on the Delaware River, Bensalem, PA. Oars up to all, including new rower, A. B., John. Barb and Elise. Our transportation system met with misfortune on the way home, so our boat and trailer are back at starting line for now. Also, the teams from Annapolis Irish Rowing Club. Pittsburgh Irish Rowing Club, and West River gave us great competition and fun. Well done, all! Videos and shared photos in comments. Philly 1st, Annapolis 2nd, Leetsdale 3rd on the day.

We had new and returning rowers out on the river tonight for our first practice! Thankfully, a cool breeze rolled in to fight the 90° temps. Send us a message if you are interested in jumping in the boat, everyone is welcome!

Taking advantage of the cold and rainy weather to do some boat maintenance! After taking off the canvas (and hundreds of staples/tacks), we worked on adjusting some ribs to fair the boat and remove some low spots. Next on the list is patching some rotted parts on the gunnel

☘️ Mondays 6-8 pm
☘️ Wednesdays 6-8 pm
☘️ Saturdays 9:30-11:30 am
