GVSU Rent-a-Rower Job Request

Thank you for your interest in the Rent-a-Rower program!  This program helps our athletes defray the cost of their club dues each year by putting them to work in our community.  We can accomplish many different tasks for you, including but certainly not limited to:

  • Yardwork and landscaping
  • Painting
  • Moving
  • Cleaning or housework
  • etc.

Please fill out the form below with your preferred dates and an outline of what you have done.  Please note we have some race days where we are not available to perform RARs for most of the day:

March 7-14: Spring Break Training (Clemson, SC)

April 4: Lubbers Cup Regatta (Grand Rapids, MI) 

April 18: Illinois Collegiate Rowing Invitational (Farmer City, IL)

April 25-26: MACRA Championship Regatta (Indianapolis, IN)

May 13-17: ACRA National Championship Regatta (Oak Ridge, TN)


Through this program, our athletes will be credited with $15 towards their dues for every hour they work  - though if you'd like to contribute more for great service, we certainly won't complain! - which can be paid via check made out to GVSU, with "GVSU Rowing Club" in the notes section, on completion of your job.  Our club treasurer will track all deposits and credit the athletes involved for all jobs.  If you'd like to make alternate arrangements, please note that in your request.
