From the south, take the Tahlequah ferry from Pt. Defiance in Tacoma.
We will need to catch the 0550 AM ferry to get there on time. The next ferry is at 0645. (Ferry schedules and updates here.)
As you can see on the map, you can turn either way to go around Burton Acres Park (in green.)
Trailer loading will be at OAR boathouse–Friday, March 15 during practice time (plus Saturday morning, if needed.)
All youth rowers should plan to be at the park Sunday, March 17 by 0630 AM. This is why you need to catch the 0550 ferry.
Trailer loading immediately following races. All athletes expected to remain until loading is complete and released by the head coach.
Trailer unloading after the regatta has yet to be determined.
