Nithsdale Amateur Rowing Club (stylised as Nithsdale ARC) is a rowing club on the River Nith, based at Nith Avenue, Dumfries, Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland.[1] The club was founded in 1865 and continues to be active to the present day. The club is affiliated to Scottish Rowing.[2]

The club hosts an annual Regatta in June and enjoys close ties with other amateur Rowing organisations such as: Strathclyde Park Rowing Club, Stirling Rowing Club and the now defunct Crichton University campus boat club.

History

The club was founded in 1865 as the Nith Regatta Club but in 1890 the name was changed to its current name.[1] In 1914 the club introduced a new flag.[3]

The club has produced multiple British champions since 1988.
