REGATTA VOLUNTEERS

The Regatta invites locals to go behind the scenes with us to make this community event a great one. We are thankful to those who donate their time and passion to such a great family event.

The numerous kids’ activities were wonderful. My littles had a great time doing activities during the day and we returned in the evening for s’mores and fireworks. Traffic control this year was great! … This year was clearly well-thought-out because traffic flowed nicely, and we were out in a reasonable amount of time.”
