 Directions to Burnaby Lake

 Race Type: 2000 Sprint

 Sanction is provided by Rowing BC.

WCURC ENTRY CONSIDERATIONS:

· Programs are expected to enter into the events which they believe will provide the most meaningful racing for their athletes

· Programs are allowed unlimited entries per event

· In the event a program enters multiple crews in an event, points will only be awarded to the top placing finisher for each program. 

As WCURC is being hosted using an external site, Burnaby Lake, we have some significant fees to cover such as lake use fees, lake equipment fees and event room rental. The event is not a very large regatta so programs should anticipate fees that allow the host to recover these costs.

TRAILER PARKING/ BOAT STORAGE

Trailers can be parked in the Burnaby Lake Pavilion lot anytime Friday, security will be provided Friday night and Saturday night for those racing on Sunday.

TRAINING SCHEDULE

Training on Friday will be available between 12pm and 6pm.  Coach boats will be available and coaches must ensure there is a coach boat on the water with their crew for safety. There will be no access to the BLRC boathouse and washrooms. A ‘training’ course flow pattern will be posted onsite.
