Regatta Directions & Information | Regatta: | Frostbite | Sponsored by: | Sagamore Rowing Association | Location: | Centre Island, New York | Driving Distance: | 8 miles | Driving Time: | 0:15 hours, plus 15-30 minutes shuttle bus | Website: | http://www.sagamorerowing.org/regattas-events/long-island-junior-rowing-championships-regatta/ | Directions by GPS: | Centre Island Beach, 463 Bayville Ave, Bayville, New York 11709 (address is approximate) | Directions by Route Description: | On I-495 E, Take exit 41N for New York 106 N/New York 107 N toward Oyster Bay · Continue on NY-106 N. Take W Shore Rd to Bayville Ave in Bayville · Merge onto NY-106 N/NY-107 N/N Broadway · Continue to follow NY-106 N/NY-107 N · Use the right 3 lanes to turn slightly right onto NY-106 N · Turn left onto Lexington Ave · Turn left onto W Main St · Continue onto W Shore Rd · Continue onto Ludlam Ave · Turn right onto W Harbor Dr · Turn right onto Bayville Ave · Destination will be on the left: 463 Bayville Ave. | Parking: | Parking is in the public parking lots at Bayville, and you must take a shuttle bus. Shuttle buses start running at 6:00 a.m. from Ransom / Stehli Beaches to regatta site. | Spectators: | TBD | Site Course & Maps: | TBD | Team Tents: | TBD | Regatta Rules & Regulations: | 1. Passes will be mailed to coaches/team administrators 2. Shell Trailer Tow vehicles AND Chuck Wagon vehicles MUST have an ORANGE PASS 3. It is up to those coaches/admins to determine who needs one from your team. 4. A very few Pink passes will be given to get into the venue itself. Orange passes will be used for Boat Trailers and Chuck Wagons. 5. A slightly few more Blue passes will be given out so you can bring a vehicle through the drop off area. Drop off means just that. You then park in the off-site locations and take a shuttle bus to venue. 6. We plan to assist drop offs with a couple golf cart shuttles from drop off point to regatta. 7. You will be asked to turn around before the drop off if you are not in possession of pass, so save time and go straight to shuttle locations. No drop-off at the turn around either. That will slow flow of traffic on the only road in and out. 8. No pets/animals allowed anywhere in the park. 9. Tent areas will be assigned by regatta staff. Do not expect larger than 10 x 20 area. No pre-reservations were taken this year. If there is additional space after all 10 x 20 are assigned a 20 x 20 will be given to teams with a combination of larger entry pool and general size of team. 10. Any generators or cooking grills need to have tarp under them to not contaminate the beach. You can be ticketed for this. 11. Wet launching. No docks. 12. Lanes go from 1-8 and you must have a bow number on your boat to make your race count. 13. 1500 meter course. Unless due to weather we have to shorten it. 14. Open water. Lanes are not buoyed but the course will be clearly buoyed. |
