Home --> General Regatta Information
Most of our regattas are held at Sandy Run Regional Park, a part of the Northern Virginia Regional Park Authority system on the Occoquan Reservoir. You can learn more about Sandy Run by visiting the National Capital Region Scholastic Rowing Association (NCRSRA) web site (www.ncrsra.org). Sandy Run is one of the finest rowing facilities on the East Coast. A typical regatta consists of about 25 events with up to six schools entering each heat. In addition to local schools, occasionally visiting teams from Pennsylvania, New Jersey or the Tidewater area compete. We also recently has a team from Ohio compete. Click the Lake Ridge Park & Oxford Boathouse links on the left to learn about our Oxford boathouse. Sandy Run charges a nominal parking fee, which is used to help to offset the cost of regattas. For the past several years it has been $5.00. Wear comfortable shoes, the grandstands are about a mile from the parking lots. There is a shuttle that runs from the upper parking lot to a spot nearby the grandstands for a cost of approximately $1.00 per person. Many people bring folding chairs or blankets. Dress warmly - the area by the water can be very cold in the Spring!! Depending on the locations, Hylton also participates in various "away" regattas. These include The Stotesbury Cup in New jersey and the SRAA Nationals - held at various locations. Click on links from on the left to learn about these events.
