This will be monitored by park rangers. Team Vans may park in the “West Picnic” lot. Team Buses may NOT enter the parking lot area and must drop off athletes on Paxson Ave next to the boat trailer field. After dropping off athletes, buses must park in the designated parking area as indicated on the Event Venue map above.
Team Tents, Team Food Trailers & Parents Dropping off Food Tent Supplies
- Teams that would like a tent in the spectator area must register for a spot. Each tent spot is a 10’x20′ space and teams may register for up to two spots. Tent registration is through RegattaCentral (scroll to bottom of page for link to tent reservation)
- Each team that registers for tent space will receive a marked off spot for their team tent in the spectator area.
- Spaces will be assigned based on time of registration. All tent spaces will be labeled with the team name.
- Each team with a tent space reservation will be allowed to park a chuck wagon in the designated parking area. Vehicles are not allowed to drive directly to their tent spot. The designated chuck wagon parking area is the closest you may drive to your tent spot.
- Parents will be able to drive their cars to the chuck wagon parking area on Friday after 12pm only. The finish area is closed to cars during race days.
- Teams/parents will be allowed to set up tents on Friday between 12:00pm and 6:00pm.
- PNRA volunteers will assist parents dropping off food with golf carts. Parents bringing food to the event on race days will need to park in the spectator parking lot and utilize golf carts for transporting items to the tents. Parents are encouraged to bring wagons and hand trucks in order to avoid waiting for a golf cart.
- Aggressive or abusive food tent parents and spectators will lead to the team’s exclusion from the regatta without refund. This will be strictly enforced!
