Quaker City Masters Regatta

  • Aug 5, 2006

  • Philadelphia, PA (USA)
  • Hosted By: Fairmount Rowing Association
Once known as the MRA Championship Regatta, then the Subaru Schuylkill Sprints, the regatta is now in its seventh year, and its third as Quaker City Masters Regatta (we finally kept a name for more than two years!!!).  The regatta is hosted by the Fairmount Rowing Association, a club predominantly made up of masters rowers on Philadelphia’s historic Boathouse Row.  Fairmount (est. 1877) merged with Quaker City Barge Club (est. 1858) in 1945, thus the name of the regatta.  In the Fairmount spirit, we try to provide a fun, relaxed atmosphere with plenty of great competition.  And beer.
