Board of Rowing Stewards

Stewards

Mission

The Washington Rowing Stewards, through an active presence of alumni and friends of the program, work to connect and inspire our community to support and promote the men’s and women’s rowing teams at the University of Washington. 

Meet the

Board

The Board of Washington Rowing Stewards consists of a core group of men and women, representing varying generations and perspectives. The Board assists the coaches and the University in raising money, guiding endowment funds to maximize the opportunities presented by these gifts, and plays a principal role in planning for the future of the program. The Executive Committee works throughout the year to support the program and coordinate the alumni/friends/parents program. If you are interested in joining the Board, please contact one of our co-chairs.
