Volunteer Options

There are many opportunities to volunteer your time at NYCRI. Below is just a sample. If you feel like you would like to volunteer in another way, please contact the Head Coach or a Board Representative. Each parent is asked to volunteer for one fundraiser or event per year or another comparable position. Each master is expected to participate in the annual masters-run fundraiser and take on a boathouse responsibility. These are posted at the boathouse and sign-up happens once per session. Masters are also encouraged to serve on a committee.
