Welcome to the Row for the Cure #PinktheBoathouse Challenge

October 1-31, 2020

Breast cancer hasn't stopped because of COVID-19 and neither have we.

For 27 years Row for the Cure has shared a passion with the rowing community to fight cancer and to support those who have been impacted. In 2020 we can ALL participate and help change lives while meeting the Challenge, celebrating virtually, sharing moments of respect and honor remotely, and fundraising online in support of local Komen affiliates, community cancer organizations supporting local breast cancer health programs and cutting-edge research to find cures.
