What's special about your rowing club? What are the challenges? What keeps you coming back? Our guest this week is Ben Quick of Pioneer Valley Riverfront Club in Springfield, Massachusetts, and others guests to be confirmed. Past clubs we've spotlighted include Minneapolis RC, DC Strokes, Community Rowing, Upper Valley Rowing, Traverse City RC, Green Bay, and many more.

We love to surface the cool things that rowing clubs around the country are doing in this regular feature of #readyrowusa, so send us any job postings, recent hires, member awards and medals, upcoming regattas, fundraisers and other programs that you'd like to highlight. We'll mention as many as possible in our live broadcast and publish all eligible submitted items in the show notes. No club is too small, too humble, too posh, or too large!
