Rowers from across the Pacific Northwest took full advantage of the calm weather at the Head of the Nicomekl Regatta, which took place Saturday morning.
Participants of the event – which has been hosted since the mid 1990s by the Nicomekl Rowing Club – began the 5.7-km course, starting near the Nicomekl River dam to Crescent Beach pier, at 11 a.m.
Due to tidal conditions, this year’s event consisted of just one race – with a staggered start – as opposed to previous years, in which multiple races were held throughout the weekend.
