Niskayuna Rowing is located in the Mohawk Valley of Upstate New York near the city of Schenectady. We row on the Mohawk River out of the Town of Niskayuna's Aqueduct Park. We offer middle school and high school rowing teams and training year-round, and Learn-To-Row classes for children and adults in the summer.

FRIENDS OF NISKAYUNA ROWING MISSION STATEMENT
The mission of the Friends of Niskayuna Rowing is to support programs that enable and encourage youth and adults through the sport of rowing to develop lifelong skills that foster healthy living, teamwork and strong families.
NISKAYUNA ROWING HISTORY
Originally called the Niskayuna Crew Club, Niskayuna Rowing was organized in April, 1987 when juniors Alyson Kuntz and Jennett Vosburgh recruited Nan Kuntz, Niskayuna teacher, and Matt Hopkins, Union College rower, to help get the club on the water. During the first spring, 30 eager Niskayuna students took turns practicing in a wooden shell made in 1950 that was purchased for $1.00 with a set of borrowed wooden oars. By the later '90's, there were as many as 130 team members rowing daily out of a bay added to the Aqueduct Boat House by Niskayuna parents in 1992.
We are currently creating a comprehensive history of Niskayuna Rowing and would welcome any input from alumni, parents, and other former and present members. If you would like to be part of this project, please contact us at info@niskyrowing.org. Thank you for your help!
