What goes on? Two twenty-member teams row as fast as they can to the beat of their drummer and at the mercy of whoever is running the tiller. Fast fun. Teams race two at a time and will row in heats throughout the day. We'll have entertainment and music between heats. It's a festival atmosphere with food vendors, entertainment and surprises. Bring your cameras.
