Tour of ERC

E-mail Print PDF
The ERC indoor training facility made its debut in 1995. The building houses a modest state-of-the-art indoor rowing tank which provides ongoing technique development to our members throughout the winter months despite the frozen river. It also serves as a starting point for the would-be rowers to help them learn the basic movements of rowing. There are two parts to the facility, a multifunctional area and the rowing tank itself.

E-mail Print PDF
The Edmonton Rowing Club is seeking two summer students for the upcoming 2010 spring/summer on-water season (May – Aug). The students’ duties will primarily involve coxing and coaching Learn to Row crews, conducting the summer youth camps, assisting the Row for Kids Coordinator and the Club Manager.  It will also include general maintenance and clean-up duties at the boathouse, general operation of the Club during the summer, and other duties as assigned from time to time.

Employment will be from May to August, for approximately 30-35 hours per week per student.  The work will be concentrated in the late afternoons and early evenings from Monday to Thursday, and possibly some Fridays and Saturdays, as the rowing activities require. The rate of pay will be in the $15 per hour range and will be commensurate with experience and qualifications.  Students who stay to the end of  August will receive a bonus at the conclusion of their work term.

The successful candidate is required to have a Pleasure Craft Operator License and completed a Level 1 LTR Instructor Course or equivalent, depending on rowing experience outlined in the resume and personal reference. (Such a course is tentatively scheduled March 2010, for those who are interested.) A valid First Aid Level C CPR certification is a plus, but not required.  Preference will be given to those who are able to demonstrate proficient knowledge in rowing, good communication and interpersonal skills, self-sufficiency in organization, and past coaching experience.
