Some rowing in Spain in July

When rowing was cancelled as a featured sport at the 2008 Eurogames, we had been in conversations with a local Barcelona rowing club about the possibility of European rowers participating in an independent coastal rowing regatta on the same weekend. Unfortunately, that did not pan out.

However, there is another possibility: the XIV Banyoles Masters Fest International Regatta 19 – 20 Jul 2008. It sounds like a lot of fun – a low entry fee of 35 Euros includes all races and a dinner party with lots of delicious Spanish food and lots of FREE beer, and a cocktail regatta on Sunday evening. So if you’re still yearning for some Spanish sun, check it out.
