Following a meeting of the CHRW Regatta Committee it has regrettably been decided to cancel CHRW 2020 due to the restrictions imposed upon us all in managing the Covid-19 virus.
CHRW is a complicated and large event with substantial gatherings of people. The committee decided it is unable to run the event safely as well as fulfil our social responsibility to provide a duty of care to both competitors and volunteers by restricting opportunity for the spread of the virus.
We invite everyone to come back next year when we will endeavour to make CHRW 2021 a special week.
The date for CHRW 2021 is 9-13th August - so please put this in your diary now!
On behalf of the committee, I wish you all the best for the remainder of the summer, stay safe, and we look forward to seeing you all next year.
Greg Wells, CHRW Regatta Committee Chairman
