The Schuylkill Navy of Philadelphia is dedicated to expanding racial diversity, equity, and inclusion in the Philadelphia rowing community. We stand against racist speech and behaviors and will take action against any occurrence in any Schuylkill Navy-conducted event or any organization affiliated with the Navy. We strive to make Boathouse Row and the eighteen clubs and organizations that comprise the Schuylkill Navy a welcoming space for all. We acknowledge that rowing changes lives and that we must all do more to extend the opportunity to experience the transformational power of our sport to the wider community, especially to populations that have been historically under-represented in their access to rowing.
