The winter time trail series was started by Mark Kwiatkowski of Canberra Rowing Club. It was subsequently handed over to Rowing ACT which has run it ever since.
The race is over about a 4 km course running from Scrivener Dam to Yarralumla Bay, following the contours of Lake Burley Griffin. Although there are a range of prizes, there are two main awards.
- Lyn Cirulis Plate; and
- Mark Kwiatkowski Cup
