OARCA will not charge any additional fees, but you will be required to pay the RCA and PRA fees for the 2026-2027 fiscal unless you have already paid them elsewhere. Even if you have paid your RCA and PRA fees elsewhere, please register for this program so that we know you are planning to continue using your card. Please note that all who register for this program will be checked to see if they had registered for a punch card in the 2025-2026 fiscal. A separate 2026-2027 punch is available for those who don't have a current punch card and wish to start coastal rowing after April 1, 2026. This extension is only good for the 2026-2027 fiscal year.

(Please contact membership@oarca.ca to arrange an orientation session.) Rowers are expected to assess risks, take responsibility for their own safety, and know how to get help as outlined in the OARCA safety code. There will not be a coach or safety boat on the water. OARCA has 3 solos, 3 coastal doubles and has 2 coastal coxed quads. These boats will be available for general rowing and/or training purposes. There is a sign-out sheet to ensure all crews have access to the boats. Clubs not in the Greater Victoria area may purchase a punch card to be shared by current, active club members. Contact OARCA (membership@oarca.org) prior to purchasing the punch card for more details. Note: Punch cards may NOT be used for regattas.
