The West Side Rowing Club will host the 2011 Head of the Niagara Regatta on Oct. 15.
The 2.5-mile race, held in the Black Rock Canal, will feature both adult and youth divisions. Every winner will be awarded a cash prize.
“We’re hoping to get boats from Rochester and Southern Ontario,” said Matt Logue, director of boathouse operations at the West Side Rowing Club. “We’re looking for a good turnout and some help from the weather.”
The race is open to the public. Entry information can be found on the club’s website, wsrc.com. By Julia Merulla and Mike Meiler
