Rose City Rowing Club and Station L Rowing Club are proud to announce that the 2019 Portland Fall Classic will return to our alternate course at Vancouver Lake, Washington (last used in 2011).

Expect the same quality racing experience and a shorter regatta day.   With the efficiency of beach launching and landing, we will start the regatta at 9:00am and wrap up by 1:30pm.

With the new regatta start time, the coaches and coxswain meeting will begin at 7:30am.

The event list is similar to past years, but the order has been slightly altered, so examine the schedule carefully.
