Join fellow alumni for brunch during the 2025 Head of the Charles Regatta, which will celebrate its 60th anniversary on the Charles River in Boston and Cambridge, attracting thousands of rowers and spectators for the world's largest 3-day regatta, featuring youth, collegiate, masters, and para rowing categories. Mix, mingle and enjoy oysters at the Hourly Oyster House before walking over together to watch the Men's and Women's Club Fours and Eights. Full event schedule can be found here. We will order oysters and apps for the table of 10 that we are holding. 

Since its origin in 1965, the Head Of The Charles® Regatta has welcomed the world’s best crew teams to the banks of the Charles River for the ultimate three-day rowing competition.

Preparing for an event that attracts over 12,000 athletes and tens of thousands of spectators requires a great deal of preparation. The HOCR consists of a 15 member Board of Directors, six of which are in charge of race management and overseeing an eleven-member race committee (including two race co-chairs). The race committee meets year-round to discuss the operational and logistical details of the event. They are assisted by 125 leading volunteers on 30 separate committees that begin meeting weekly in the fall. A full-time, professional staff of six, headquartered in the Cambridge Boat Club, works year-round to plan the event, obtain sponsorship and communicate with the rowing community.
