· Please bring clothing appropriate for the weather. We have seen temperatures range from the low 40’s to the high 70’s over the years that we have been holding this event. It is better to bring more clothes than not enough! The forecast is for 58 and partly sunny on Saturday, but please be prepared for wet weather!
· Athletes should stay out of the sun and keep hydrated during the day as much as possible.
· Bring a change of dry clothes to put on after or between racing.

This regatta is a long day, please plan on a full day which will not end until all equipment has been loaded and is ready to head back to our boathouse. Again, our tentative departure time is 3:00 PM.
