Extra: We need help from the parents to carry oars because it gets very crowded at the dock. This is a fun regatta to start off the new season. For first place there are medals provided, for second and third place ribbons are provided. This is a costume race. When you know your line ups crews are responsible for costumes and costume themes. We arive early in the morning and it is very dark while we rig the boats, so bring a flashlight or head light if you can.
