1. Races will start at 8:15 a.m. Coaches/coxswains meeting at 6:30 a.m. in the lower SPU gym, enter through the shellhouse. All scullers should attend the meeting in order to receive entry numbers. You will not be timed if you cross either the start or finish line without a visible shirt entry number.
2. There will be four flights with competitors sent off every 5 seconds to allow for each flight to finish before the next begins. This should improve timing and results as well as relieve some dock congestion

4. Lightweights. Honor system weigh-ins. Women: 135 lbs max., men: 165 lbs. max, no average. A scale is available for challenges on questionable crews.
5. All competitors should be Red Cross float test certified. It is the responsibility of the entering organization to verify this. There will be NO rowers abandoning shells due to breakages.

7. Long sleeve regatta shirts will be on sale on race day.
8. Concessions will be available.
9. Parking is limited so please park in designated areas only. We ask that all cars park on the street or in SPU lots so there is adequate room for boats and trailers in the park area. Early arrival is recommended.
