The Course. The Great Miami River in downtown Hamilton provides a superb venue for rowing. The area between the Hamilton Low Dam (lower dam) and the Two-Mile Low Dam (upper dam) is an untapped rowing resource with limited power boat access. The river has high man-made levy walls that are soft and can easily absorb wakes.

Unparalleled Spectating. The levy provides a very sheltered canal-like river.Leave your binoculars at home,the view of the race course is perfect in Hamilton. Additionally, the levy high levy walls shelter the race course from the majority of wind conditions.
