Head of the Giblet

  • Hosted By: South Orlando Rowing Association

3rd annual Head of the Giblet - October Updates

We are less than 2 months from the Giblet !!

The event schedule now shows event times.  We're trying to give you an enjoyable & full regatta AND have races done by 2 p.m. 

We have added the middle school coxed 4x and middle school 8+ events to the schedule.  Highlights for these two events include:

                est. 2250 meters (just under 1/2 of the 5000 meter course)

                ½ price entry fees ($40 for the 8+, $25 for the 4x)

                All middle school participants receive a medal

All mixed events are at the end of the day (1-2 p.m.)  Although your rowers will only be able to participate in one mixed event, we hope this will create an enjoyable grand-finale to the day and allow most rowers to race in a mixed event.

The Turkey feet have been ordered!! We promise this year we will have a gold turkey foot trophy as all-points trophies (sepreate trophies for Master and HS programs) and for first-place finishers in select events.  More details & which events receive trophies will be in the November update.  All events will receive 1st, 2nd and 3rd place medals.

The Gobbler Sandwich is back & a Frozen Turkey will again be awarded to the top Master 1x (men and women).
