Grosvenor Rowing Club
Grosvenor Rowing Club is based on the Groves in Chester. It rows on the River Dee and has around 30 km of rowable river at its disposal.
The club colours are blue and gold, the blades and boats being blue and orange.
==History==
The club was formed in 1869 to enable the less fortunate people of Chester to take up the sport of rowing. The club's crest states "Virtus non stemma" which translates to "Valor, not garland" or "Virtue, not pedigree" (This is derived from the motto of the Duke of Westminster's (Earl Grosvenor) Eaton Hall home, which is further up the River Dee. The motto also sums up the open membership of the club since its inauguration; originally contradictory to the membership of the close by Royal Chester Rowing Club which was traditionally home to the alumni of the public King's School.
Grosvenor is named in honour of the Grosvenor family who own the land on which the club is built. The club names its VIIIs after members of the Grosvenor family.
