The race is held at the Cleveland Rowing Foundation Boathouse on the Cuyahoga River and was originally called the Home Schools Regatta. The race course was previously from the I90 bridge to the end of the Boathouse. With the move to the new Rivergate boathouse 500 meters downstream, a few changes have been made this year to the course.

You can watch Start and Finish of the Qualifying race at Settler’s Landing. For the Final race you can watch the beginning of the race from settler’s landing but you’ll miss the finish. If you want to see the last 30 strokes I’d recommend watching at Hart Crane Memorial Park next to columbus Rd.
NOTE: There is 2 Merwin Avenues and they do not connect! You want the one by the Columbus Rd Bridge (The Brown Bridge), NOT Center St. Bridge (The Red Bridge).
