Chevron Learn To Row Program!
 
The Chevron Learn To Row Program has been a great success this year. We had a great turn out of new crews wanting to learn and compete the oldest sporting event in North America. 

The Learn To Row Program was introduced in October 2011 to allow individuals who had never rowed before learn this sport. The Learn To Row Program is opened to all individuals and crews of any age wanting to learn how to row.

The Royal St. John's Regatta Committee is in partnership with Chevron Canada Limited to run a Learn To Row Program this Spring. 

For more information, contact stjohnsregatta@nf.aibn.com or try our Facebook Page.
Interested in becoming a coxswain?
 
Due to the great success of our Chevron Learn To Row Program, the Regatta Committee will now be implementing a "Learn To Coxswain" Program. 
Do you need a coxswain? Get a friend or family member and get them involved. 

Visit The Royal St. John's Regatta website or contact a boathouse staff member. 
Notice to all Coxswains:

 

On Tuesday June 5th, 7 pm. and Saturday June 9th at 10am, upstairs in the museum, the Captain of the Course will be conducting meetings the purpose of which is to a) outline the recommendations from the Accident Report from last year's Regatta, b) to show a video which outlines the new recommended procedures, c) to outline the new safety procedures that are being recommended d) finally to gather your input to ensure these measures that are taken are both understood and implemented properly. Attendance at one of these meetings is "mandatory" for any coxswain who wishes to participate in any Regatta event in 2012 starting with Discovery Day.
