There is no parking at the regatta site. All parking is off site. Parking organizers are asking for $5 donation to Habitat for Humanity. Shuttles run regularly from the parking garage to the regatta. It can take 20-30 minutes to ride the shuttle bus from the parking site to the venue.
All rowers should be at the venue (at the trailer) 2.5 hours prior to their race time
The venue has a “wet launch” meaning rowers walk the boat into the water and then climb in. Pack extra socks & clothing.
Food and drinks are provided for the rowers (this is included in the rowing fees)
Parent Information:
Be sure to bring a chair and layer clothing - it can get very chilly early and then get very warm.
Parents and families are welcome have some breakfast and lunch at the tent - we just ask that you make a contribution in our donation jar to cover the cost of your food.
