Canberra Rowing Club Regatta – Call for Entries The CRC Regatta is being held on Saturday, 31 January. Entries must be placed through your club so that they reach ACTRA no later than 25 January. Standard ACTRA List of Events The standard list of events has been changed for the CRC and following regattas. The new list can be found here. The changes are:

• For grade D and E there are now separate school events and open events. In situations where entries are insufficient to conduct races in school and open categories the races may be combined to avoid adding to the length of regattas. This is a reorganisation of the existing pattern of entries and will not result in additional races on the programme.
• An events for MGD 2x (school and open) has been added to the list.

Independent Schools Rowing Association Regatta – 14-15 February The ISRA regatta is being held in Canberra this year. Entries close, through Rowing Manager, on 3 February via school or club regatta entry secretaries. The event list can be found here.
