DESERT SPRINTS REGATTA AT TEMPE TOWN LAKE

Largest Arizona Rowing Event To Date

When: Saturday, March 6, 2010; 7:00 a.m.

Where: Tempe Town Lake, Tempe, AZ

The waters of Tempe Town Lake will be churning with the blades of hundreds of rowers on March 6, as Tempe hosts its largest ever 9
th Annual Desert Sprints Regatta. Rowing clubs from California, Colorado and Utah will be traveling to compete against Arizona’s best Junior/High School teams, ASU’s club team and local Masters men’s and women’s crews in one of the first regattas of the spring “sprint” season.

 

“The Desert Sprints Regatta has been growing in popularity every year,” said Kathy Moum, President of the Regatta sponsor, Tempe Rowers Association.

 

“This will be our biggest and best regatta by far; putting Tempe on the national rowing map. This event should not be missed.”

 

The Junior races will be particularly competitive, as collegiate rowing programs are recruiting many of these scholar-athletes from Brophy Prep, Tempe Junior Crew, Tempe Town Lake Juniors and Xavier Prep. For the Colorado and Utah teams, this may be the first time they have been able to row on the water in the new year, having prepared through rigorous winter-long workouts on rowing machines and other training regimens.

 

Teams will be competing in a series of 1500 and 1000 meter races in both sculling and sweep boats, with the first races starting at 7:00 a.m. and continuing until approximately 5:00 p.m. Spectators are encouraged to watch the races from along the lake’s north shore, with the boats launching from the SRP Marina, also located on the north shore of the lake.

 

Sponsorship opportunities are available, including the highly coveted “Trophy Race.” For more information please contact Kathy Moum at 602-430-0206.
