The health and safety of our members and community is our number one priority. As such, we have made the difficult decision to suspend all GCRA activities and member access to the boathouse due to the COVID-19 pandemic, effective immediately. Thank you for your understanding during this unprecedented time. Please reach out to an officer if there are any questions.
The Griggs Reservoir Boathouse
GCRA began using the newly constructed Griggs Reservoir Boathouse in April of 2011.
GCRA security access cards will open the doors. The boathouse is available between 5:00am and 9:30pm. You must not enter the building outside these hours or the alarm will be triggered.
The contract to construct the Griggs Reservoir Boathouse was approved by the Columbus City Council on October 5, 2009. This boathouse is a shared facility between GCRA, Ohio State University's Women's Varsity Rowing Team and the City of Columbus.
If you would like to inquire as to how to rent the Scioto Room in the Griggs Reservoir Boathouse, please contact the Columbus Recreation and Parks Department, Permit and Rental Services. GCRA is not involved in the scheduling of non-rowing events in the facility.
