The objective of this initiative is to fully endow all expenses related to the rowing program by 2027, the 100th anniversary of Kent’s debut at the Henley Royal Regatta. This campaign aims to secure over $4 million to support and celebrate a century of rowing excellence at Kent and to ensure its future for the next hundred years.
Recognizing the profound impact the program has had on many, we invite you to play a role in the future of rowing at Kent School. Like you, we are deeply committed to ensuring that Kent’s rowing legacy continues to thrive for the next century.
Proud to support future generations of KSBC NEIRAs Champs!

In honor of In honor of Charlie Kershaw, Garth Griffin, Clint Whisler, and the Boss Man, for helping a bunch of boys become men by proving that if you believe in yourself, and are willing to commit unconditionally to a common goal, anything is possible.
What I learned in my time on the water at Kent was, you only achieve success when nine became one, forging a unity that beat as a one synchronous pulse of the boat.

In honor of W. Hart Perry
Hart was a mentoring coach and friend to me and so many others. Rowing at Kent formed me as a young person and I want to make sure the same happens in the future. As Hart would say: Rowing isn't a sport. It's a way of life.
