Thanks for playing at the 38th Annual Textile River Regatta. What a great day, only made possible by the sportsmanship and hard work of all the crews, families and volunteers on many levels. We're very grateful for your support and wish you the best success in this racing season.
Coaches: Please download and sign the Coach's Certification Form to help expedite check-in. Wilma thanks you in advance.
Competitors or their coaches must check-in at the Bellegarde Boathouse at the main desk.
Check-in times are as follows: Saturday, Sep 30th 4pm to 6pm and Sunday, Oct 1st 6am to 3pm
Allow ample time to get through check-in and make your event. We have the fastest check-in team around, but you might wait 15 minutes during peak times. We highly encourage coaches to come with a well-prepared set of documentation to complete the check-in for their entire fleet in one pass.

Bring a Launch, get a Comped Entry
We're looking for 5 launches to be on the water during the regatta. We'll waive the entry fee for an 8+ for each
launch you can bring. Most launches will be in stationary marshal positions throughout the day (lightly used), and you
can certainly use them during practice hours on Saturday. First-come-first-served. Send an email to
info@textileriverregatta.org to get the details.

rowing parent and commercial drone operator. It was shot during the early afternoon of TRR'16 with a lot of eights on the water.
