Regattas, or races, an endurance and speed competition, have been an exciting part of American culture since 1828 and have even become a popular Olympic sport. Westerville has had their own rowing team, the Westerville Crew, since the mid 1990s. Facing the back of the boat, teammates work together with one person dedicated to steering, one or two people in charge of pacing and timing, and the middle of the pack generating momentum using oars. Hoover Reservoir hosts two Regatta competitions annually, the Hoover Sprints in the spring and the Hoover Fall Classic in the fall, drawing crowds from all over. It's a competition that you don't want to miss! Learn more about Regattas in Westerville.
