Christ Church Boat Club

The Christ Church Boat Club Society

The Society was set up in Michaelmas 1992 under the guidance of Dr David Nowell, at that time the Senior Treasurer of the Boat Club. Its aim is to generate support for the current Boat Club from old members with fond memories of rowing on the Isis. In providing social events, such as Eights Week drinks parties and Reunion Dinners, we hope to bridge the gap between past and present members of the Club.

All members of the House who have an interest in the Boat Club are encouraged to join. If you remain in contact with other members of the House who rowed, please let them know about the Society too.

Through its fund-raising activities the Society is able to donate equipment to the Club. And the social events organised for Society members are an excellent opportunity to meet old friends and current boaties.

A newsletter, Boat House, is sent to all Society members to keep them up to date with the results and activities of the Boat Club. Any contributions to the newsletter are gratefully received.
