Regatta Schedule Notes:

(1) The Schedule is subject to change. SRAAs only if OLMA qualifies.

(2) Allow plenty of time for travel due to unknowns such as traffic. There tend to be road closures in the area of the regattas.

(3) DO NOT depend on your GPS estimate of arrival time.

(4) Overnight refers to the prior night travel due to the travel distance. The girls need to be on the water early (usually 6:30-7:00 a.m.).

(5) Overnight hotel stay is not necessary, but is recommended, especially for new rowers and parents who are unfamiliar with the venue.

(6) Approximate driving distance and time from OLMA.

(7) Philadelphia & Oyster Bay travel times: add another 30-45 minutes to the above driving times to allow for walking from public parking lots to riverfront at Philadelphia and for the shuttle bus from Stehli Beach parking lot to Centre Island; first time shown is driving time to public parking: second time shown is total travel time including local shuttle or walking times.
