Make or print additional copies as needed.

If entering masters events, please indicate rowers' age as of December 31 and average age of boat. Entries received after July 18th will be assessed a $20.00 penalty per event, and admission will be on a space-available basis. Make checks payable to: LAKE MERRITT ROWING CLUB. All entries must include payment in full. No entries will be accepted after Sunday July 25th, 1999. No exceptions. No changes to boat personnel will be accepted after the first race of the day has begun.

Note: A single organization whose entry fees total $250 or more is eligible for a 25% discount. All boats must be racing for the same organization, and all entries must be received together with the fee by July 18th. For example, if Marin Rowing Association entries received together total $400.00, they may deduct 25% of $400 and pay $300.00 (400-(400*.25)=300).

LMRC Members: Boats composed entirely of Lake Merritt Rowing Club members (must be in good standing) are eligible for a 50% discount if the entry & fee is received by July 18th. Otherwise, the above > July 18 fees apply.

We at the Lake Merritt Rowing Club strive to make race day enjoyable for all competitors, officials, volunteers, and spectators. We work to maximize opportunities for competitors to race, running the races on time, reducing confusion over entries, competitors, and lane assignments, and by quickly producing accurate race results. To facilitate our goal of running a smooth regatta, we have developed the following rules:

• Scratches will be charged $15 for each race scratched after July 22nd. If you must scratch, please let the Registrar know as soon as possible.
• Any changes to your entry categories will be on a space available basis only. There will be no refunds for changes made after July 22nd that we are not able to accommodate. For example: if a women's 4+ is entered in the 4+ WOLt race, and wants to switch to the 4+ WO race, we will make every effort to accommodate the change. If we are not able to, and the competitor chooses not to race the entry will be considered a 'scratch' and charged accordingly.
• No more than 50% of the competitors entered in a boat may be changed. For example, if an 8+ is entered, no more than four competitors may be replaced in the boat. No competitors can be substituted in 1X races.
• All competitor changes must be submitted to the Registrar prior to the first race of the day on Sunday, August 1st. NO COMPETITOR CHANGES will be accepted after racing has begun, no exceptions!
• All entries and changes must be made in writing via the mail, fax or email. Entries are considered received and accepted by the Registrar if the complete entry, including fees, is received before Sunday, July 25th, and there is space remaining in the race at the time the entry is received. Please note, if you use email or fax to enter, your entry will be considered received when the fee is received via the regular mail.
• No entries will be accepted after Sunday July 25th. There are no exceptions to this rule.
• If we must cancel an event due to insufficient entries, the contact person on the entry form will be notified and the entry fees will be refunded.

• Entries must be received by July 18th to register at the lower fee rate.

• Late entries will be accepted with the appropriate fees and on a space-available basis.

• Read the RULES TO LIVE BY.

• No entries will be accepted after Sunday, July 25th.

• Please bring bow numbers.
