Registration: team captains are required to check at least 30 minutes prior to their race starts to confirm their rosters and to verify waiver and CORA membership renewals.
Sterns meetings & post race meetings: mandatory steers’ meetings are held before 15 minutes before each race (see schedule); draw prizes and finish prizes will be distributed after each race.
Teams will be registered on a first come, first served basis. Deadline for registration is two days before the event; if registration fills before the deadline your crew will be waitlisted.
Please note: Individual Digital Waivers required for each paddler, along with CORA paddler memberships.
