SMITH, JR elcome to the 43rd edition of the Head Of The Charles® Regatta! On behalf Wof the Regatta’s five Managing Direc- tors, I would like to take this opportu- nity to thank you for your continued support. The Regatta depends upon the rowing community, countless volun- teers and tens of thousands of specta- tors and dedicated athletes for its yearly success. Events like the Head Of The Charles take a full year of planning to execute. During the past twelve months, our Race Committee has met regularly to review the Regatta’s future direction and to develop new strategies for posi- tive changes. Thanks to the vision and hard work of co-race Directors, Greg Krom and Mary Farrell, along with a core of twelve dedicated Race Commit- tee members, several enhancements have been made. Practice schedules have been re- vised including the elimination of prac- tice on Saturday afternoon. We know this decision eliminates a trial row over the course for some crews before the race, but in the interest of athlete safety it was deemed necessary. To counter this change, we added a third coxswains’ tour; one on Friday afternoon and two on Saturday. The Directors and I will CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY TURNING AT CAMBRIDGE BOAT CLUB FORTY-THIRD HEAD OF THE CHARLES REGATTA 7 organization review this policy again after 2007. will directly contribute to the Regatta’s HEAD OF THE CHARLES REGATTA The Regatta also conducted a permanent endowment.
