Yes especially on $3M of revenue... there is no way they can justify those salaries as a non-profit. Who do they need to remain competitive with to retain employees? No other US regatta compares in scope, and USRowing is a different type of entity.

The Charles put in a hell of a regatta. I am gonna miss the grand weekend this year and I am sure it will be back with a bang

Don’t knock another mans hustle, stay focused on your own.

They are not losing employees to other rowing entities. Turns out the skills acquired while trying to run the regatta are applicable in other industries.

Well, the head guy makes a lot, so average might be misleading.

How much do they make relative to non rowing events of a similar size and stature? Comparing their salaries to any rowing event is pretty meaningless; nothing else in the sport compares in size and scope.

Not sure about the domestic events, but we'll know how likely Silver Skiff is to happen based on whether or not the Giro D'Italia (currently scheduled for 10/3-10/25) happens.

Every other country is going to have regattas...because they were responsible with viral containment. Sigh.

Rowing, Other countries are having regattas and America is not invited

Trump got his wall, instead of keeping people out , it’s keeping us in.

Lots of time on the clock. We'll see how Europe fares into the fall.
