2001 RESULTS:

The 2001 Occoquan Challenge conditions were good for this USRowing officiated race. The Occoquan Challenge received over 120 entries for this regatta well over 50% increase from its inaugural year. The Occoquan Challenge is unlike most fall races in that the race starts and begins at the same location and includes several challenging turns and straight-aways.

The purpose of the Occoquan Challenge is to not only offer a great race experience both on and off the water but invest all profits back into the rowing community through grants to rowing clubs throughout the country. In light of this year’s great tragedy we have decided to instead donate all profits to the American Red Cross. For more information on how you might be able to apply for the 2002 Challenge Rowing grant please contact us at: OCRChallenge@aol.com.

Several course records were broken at this year’s regatta despite somewhat windy conditions. Individuals and organizations that are marked in bold and have asterisks next to their name are 2001 record holders for that event and receive free entries for next year. To receive free entries for next year all record holders must register no later than August 20, 2001

Conditions: 72 degrees. Sunny- Windy 10-15 mph cross/head wind. Water quality good to choppy at times.
