Welcome to the 14^th Annual OARS Invitational! 

The Orlando Area Rowing Society is delighted to once again host this event at Bill Frederick Park at Turkey Lake on Saturday, March 10th, 2012.

Saturday's race events will take place on a 1500 m course with races starting every 7 minutes. 

By request, we've added doubles back into the schedule on Saturday.  We will also be offering a middle school race. The middle school event will occur at the beginning of the lunch break and will be mixed boats rowing a 1000 m course.  

While it is exciting to see the growth of the invitational over the years, this has caused the event to become a long day and difficult schedule to manage for our participants and judges.  Therefore, the decision was made to closely monitor the 2 event maximum per rower. While we understand this may not be the ideal scenario for all teams, we hope that it will enhance the overall event experience.   

For those in need of overnight accommodations, arrangements have been made with a nearby hotel for special rates for regatta participants. See regatta packet for further details.

Lastly, to enable a smooth start to the day, boat trailers should be at the park and in position by 6:45 AM.

We are looking forward to a race day full of excitement and success.
