George Pocock Excellence Awardees

The George Pocock Rowing Foundation presents annual awards to outstanding members of our PNW rowing community. The award ceremony takes place during the Row to the Future Breakfast each spring.  

The goal of these awards is to recognize individuals who have contributed to the sport of rowing in the PNW and who continuously embody George Pocock's selfless love of the sport.
