- Oregon Rowing Unlimited (ORU) is a non-profit 501 c (3) formed in 1988 to promote the sport of rowing in the State of Oregon. It accomplishes this mission by establishing facilities, procuring and maintaining equipment, developing programs especially for the youth of the community and presenting events to showcase the sport.
- ORU believes that life skills can be taught through sports, especially as they relate to crew. Issues of teamwork, reliability, goal setting and achievement are necessary to succeed both on and off the water. The earlier a student imbeds these transferable skills the better. Champions are first created in the mind, then by word and then by deed. Results show intention, so let's row on to our highest and best.
- ORU will continue to create and nurture crew clubs that want to enjoy this fine sport at every level. ORU will continue emphasizing high school programs in hopes that rowers can enjoy this sport for their entire lives.
- The best way to predict the future is to create it
