Thank you for your patience during all the back and forth. A few important things: 

1.  NO KEY BRIDGE BOATHOUSE LAUNCHING - ALL CAR TOPPERS OUT OF TBC (NO TRAILERS IN THE LOT) - NO PAY TO PARK ON SUNDAY

2.  NO virtual meeting tonight - here is a link  to the presentation - send this to your coxies or we will see you Sunday at 7am. 

3.  There are portable toilets even if the boathouse itself is closed - we will have access to the launches, shells, etc. 

4.  Please have everyone sign the waiver!  

5.  We have a permit for tents on the waterfront - please do not put up tents in the rigging area in front of the Swedish Embassy.  

Any questions regarding entries /registration, to register trailers, and / or to request access to launch out of Key Bridge Boathouse should be sent to regatta registrar, Mike Kummer at  [email protected]

 

 

PLEASE NOTE CHANGES made last year apply to 2023 SCULLERS HEAD OF THE POTOMAC (SHOP): 

1.  The race schedule has changed dramatically - the entire regatta is between 8am and 12:30pm. Pay attention to start times to avoid conflicts with double racing hulls and/or athletes. 

2.  There are Junior Novice 8 events as well as paddling and Para/Inclusion events.  Additionally, some of the junior women's and mens small boat events have shifted times to allow athletes to race scul and sweep and share hulls. 

3.  The course has shifted downstream. Please see the map below for the new start (at Hens and Chickens) and finish line (just at  Roosevelt Bridge). 

4.  There is no longer car top parking or access to Potomac Boat Club from Water Street - HOWEVER, if car toppers would like to launch out of Key Bridge Boat house (next to PBC - the dock is a little high with cleats, so precarious), we have access to this dock, with no other small crafts launching from there. 

5. Everyone must sign the waiver!  

6. Please email [email protected] to register your trailer - include all clubs on the trailer. We can only accomodate 11 trailers!
