For 3 days over October 3 thru 5, 2025, the 2025 Hospice Turkey Shoot Regatta (HTSR) occurred on the Rappahannock River in Virginia. We had 75 boats register for the 30th year running of the HTSR which was a huge success. Although we had to delay the race a little to pray for more wind, everything worked out. The wind was fair and it was a safe couple of days for all that attended this grand event. From the Happy Hour on Friday night, to the dinner on Saturday, and the closing ceremonies on Sunday, the weather could not have been much better (well, maybe a little more wind). Thank you to all our sponsors, volunteers, captains, boat sponsors, vendors, patrons, supporters, contributors, and donors.
