About Philadelphia Classic Regatta Series

From March to November, the Philadelphia Classic Regatta Series features over 35,000 competitors in over 7,700 boats representing high schools, colleges, clubs, as well as masters and open programs from around the country. It includes several of the nation’s oldest and largest regattas, all conducted on Philadelphia’s historic Schuylkill River. It is organized by The Schuylkill Navy, the oldest amateur athletic governing body in the U.S., representing the 12 rowing clubs based on Philadelphia’s landmark Boathouse Row.
