Rowing through the very heart of Wichita, on the Little Arkansas River, with the sound of crew calls as you pass by in the early morning sun is a mesmerizing chant. The Wichita Rowing Association has launched the WCRC initiative to realize this vision and make the Little Arkansas River a more usable resource for the entire Wichita community. It is the Wichita Rowing Association’s mission and passion to build, operate and maintain the Wichita Community Rowing Center. Wichita rowers are currently rowing from a temporary Wichita Community Rowing shelter, a facility built by members of the Wichita Rowing Association with the support of the rowing community and the Wichita Parks & Recreation Department. | Concept for the Wichita Community Rowing Center |
