Rowing At Bolgoda Lake!

As an initial step to make popular "ROWING" as a sport among Sri Lanka and to promote rowing even outside of colombo, a rowing club named Bolgoda Lake rowing Club(BLRC) established in the last year, in the premises of Ranmal Holiday Resort- panadura, in colaboration with the University of Moratuwa Rowing Team.
Bolgoda lake, wich is a very beautiful lake, in western province, is very famous among the people who love mother nature of Sri Lanka. It covers both colombo and kaluthara disticts and has calm waters which is ideal for rowing.
Although Rowing is a sprot done since about 1900, it has been not famous in Sri Lanka due to various reasons.
