Weybridge Regatta

We're looking for an adventurous team of 4 to take on a boat for White Lodge at the Weybridge Regatta.  Perfect for a work team, a group of friends or family.  It's a great day out, no rowing experience necessary, we just ask you commit to fundraising a target of £500 for White Lodge.  Full info below, to enquire or sign up please email events@whitelodgecentre.co.uk.

The regatta is organised by Weybridge Rowing Club, along the beautiful River Thames. The Regatta has been created as a community initiative to give local businesses an opportunity to meet, network and compete in a sporting environment.

A full fun day

• We kick off with breakfast and welcome at The Old Crown in Weybridge.
• Then down at the river, every team does a 500m time trial in the Desborough Cut and a 2k ergo relay (500m each).
• Lunch is provided and there is plenty of time to network and  to make useful links and friends with other local businesses.
• In the afternoon, we will run a side-by-side regatta, again 500m. Depending on the entries we may have events for single sex and mixed teams.
• The day will end with prize giving and tea in the marquee by the river around 5pm.
• Medals are being specially designed for the occasion and will surely become collectors’ items!
• Before the day – two-hour training sessions available to each team, and at least one session is mandatory for each participant. Make it social have a well earned drink afterwards with your team mates.

I can’t row?

Can’t row yet? Don’t worry, you’re not alone. We’re encouraging the inexperienced to give it a go. Expert training will be provided. For the more experienced rowers, this will be an opportunity to learn together with work colleagues and compete with rival businesses.
