FUN REGATTA:  NO EXPERIENCE NECESSARY:  From age 12 and up - you’re never too old to try rowing.

Come alone, bring a friend or form a team of four.  The choice is yours.  It’s a great opportunity to row in an 8-person

shell.  Crew team members and coaches will explain and demonstrate how to row and provide participants with an opportunity to practice and fine-tune their rowing technique on erg-o-meters (dry land rowing exercise machines) and an on the water instruction period prior

to the launch of the race.  They will provide a quick overview of proper technique, boat and oar handling, rowing

terminology and safety both on and off the water.  An experienced coxswain and four experienced team members will round out the 8-person rowing shell.  They will also provide on-the-water guidance while racing.  

Registration forms available at the recreation department (35 Town Farm Road, Westford).  Cost $35/per person or $120/team of 4.  Includes rowing, T-shirt, and lunch.
