Where: On St.Kilda Road travelling away from the City.
Trams Nos: 3, 5, 6,16 or 64.
Get off at Stop 27 on St.Kilda Road, cross St.Kilda Rd & walk a block down Lorne St, you will see the Rowing Centre which is a large white building beside the Lake. Cross Queens Rd at the Lights outside the Pulman Hotel.
Don’t walk around the Lake to the club, it is at the opposite end to MacRob, several kilometers away.
We teach lessons in most weather unless it’s unsafe such as high winds or lightening.
Of course, if its pouring rain we do not send crews outside, but use the time for important education about equipment handling and rowing exercises in our Gym.
