VENUE / RACE LOCATION / PARKING
Race Venue:
The Glastonbury Boathouse
Glastonbury, CT
Spectator Parking (please read carefully):
Parking will be a little bit tight this year with Glastonbury Parks and Rec hosting an event at the boathouse in the afternoon.
Please follow the below rules to help us run a smooth and successful race day.
-
Team Trailers should plan to arrive before 7:30 AM to ensure we can fit everyone.
-
The Community Center parking lot and lot by the baseball field are OFF LIMITS for spectators.

Spectators can park at 330 Hubbard St, Glastonbury, CT

We will have a shuttle running from 7:30 AM until the end of racing

Spectating:
Rowing families will have full access to the park to watch racing. (Please respect the park and keep things clean as well as be respectful of other members of the public who may be using the park.) The finish line to the race is located in front of the boathouse, just south of the dock. As a reminder, racing in the fall is a time trial with boats starting separately from each other and racing for the fastest time. The order boats finish is not the order they place.
There is also the opportunity to watch racing from the Rte 3 / Putnam Bridge. There is a walking path to and across the bridge that stands about 80 feet in the air, providing an overhead view of the racing below. There is a parking lot across from 449 Naubuc Ave in Glastonbury. The walk to the top of the bridge is about a mile from the parking lot. You can use bikes and scooters along this path. The bridge path will allow you to watch the starting line of the novice race.
