St George's Rowing club is one of New Zealand's oldest rowing clubs and has active schools, club and Masters rowers.

It was established in 1883 at St George's Bay, Parnell, Auckland making it New Zealand's second oldest rowing club. The development of Auckland's waterfront forced it to move home several times until in 1949 it relocated to Panmure, on the Tamaki River, where it remains today.

It remains a flourishing club and in 2008, the year of its 125 anniversary, it was awarded the title of Rowing Club of the year by the Auckland Rowing Association.

In 2008 - to celebrate its 125 year, St Georges  re-established its annual At Home Race - a popular event in the 19th Century. 
The 2011 At Home  will be held on the Tamaki River on
17 September 2011.
