Atlanta Rowing Club (ARC) is a non-profit 501(c)(4) masters rowing club located in Roswell, Georgia. ARC's colors are red and white. As a masters organization, it is the only club in the Atlanta area for rowers who are beyond high school or college age, although there are several members who are in college. The club is a volunteer-based organization with 200+ members throughout the year.

ARC conducts three four-week-long Learn-to-Row sessions each year. The classes teach people new to rowing how to row. ARC also hosts a National Learn-to-Row day where people can try rowing for one day at no cost.

ARC has 3 buildings for storing boats; a large building mostly housing eights, fours and quads, a cage holding singles, doubles, and pairs, and a small building holding private singles. There is also an erg room, kitchen and bathroom in the main boathouse.

History

Founded in 1974, the club was initially located on the lake at Stone Mountain. By 1982 membership had grown and the club obtained the use of a small building and dock at the Chattahoochee River Park. By 1989 the main boathouse was constructed where it presently stands along Azalea Drive, across from the Chattahoochee River.
