HISTORY

The Tempe Rowers Association is set to host the 10th Annual Hot Head Regatta on Tempe Town Lake. This is the fourth year of the association's involvement in the Hot Head Regatta and their sixth overall regatta. They are quickly establishing a reputation for putting on high-quality, well-run events.

The Hot Head Regatta is the oldest boating event on Tempe Town Lake, the inaugural having been held in 2002. The lake now hosts events in rowing, dragon boating, outrigger canoeing, kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding and numerous triathlons. Since we have so many diverse paddle sports on Tempe Town Lake, the Hot Head Regatta is an excellent opportunity to get all groups involved and racing in the same regatta. There will be an event for any type boat you can row or paddle. If you don't see an event for your boat type, please contact the race committee -- as long as we have two or more entries, we will race the event. 

Since its inception, the Hot Head Regatta has allowed teams from the Southwest the opportunity to experience the beauty and uniqueness of racing in the desert.  The Tempe Rowers Association looks forward to your participation in the 2012 Hot Head Regatta.
