Be Part of BHRA's History: "Clinch an Inch"
We need your support! Periodically the club conducts specific fundraisers to support boat purchases. As such, we are pleased to announce the FASTER4WARD fundraiser.
Now through March, we are offering the unique opportunity to every rower, family, alumni sponsor, and friend to “clinch an inch” by purchasing an inch or more to put your initials or name on the new boats. A contribution of $50 per inch will allow for two letters per inch. You can purchase any number of inches. At a total cost of $39,400 per boat, we hope to sell all the inches that are available to purchase on each hull. We invite everyone to participate! Read more about our campaign: HERE
Our goal is to purchase two new coxed 4's for the team. By including as many individuals and local businesses in this project we hope to raise $79,000. By participating you will be forever a part of the TEAM and BHRA history.

Just added… Cross the Finish Line First Challenge
What’s the most important section of the boat in a race?
Answer: The BOW
Why? Because it crosses the finish line first!
Open to all participants
* The four individuals, families or groups that donate the most dollars above and beyond their “Clinch the Inch” donation at $50 an inch, get to claim one of the 4 primes spots located on the bow section of our two new boats. Each boat has a port side and starboard side which together provide four opportunities to be the FIRST NAME to cross the finish line and lead our athletes to victory.
Imagine...for example
Your initials, your name, your family, your class (“Class of 2025”), your team ( “2023 Middle School Scullers”) are among the first across the line every time!
How does it work?
* If you are interested in making a larger donation for exclusive naming rights on the bow of a boat, we welcome your interest. Please contact Program Director Holly Hatton
