Both boats are now full- the list of who has paid is below.
If you would like to row in this race but did not get your payment in- please still add your name to the list. You will be added to the reserve list, if we get 6 on the reserve list I will source a third boat. :-)

If you would like to come along to support, give me a shout and I will explain what you need to book.

Hotel booking clarification*****
The Friday night party with BBQ & live band is hosted by the Thames Young Mariners Riverside Drive, TW10 7RX.
The finish line and Saturday night entertainment are just across the field from this.

Special hotel rates are available at the Lensbury Hotel, Broom Road, Teddington TW11 9NU and the Travelodge, Park House, Station Road, Teddington TW11 9AD a short walk from the campsite and BBQ.

You are obviously free to book whatever accommodation you want to- I am just letting you know where there special rates are being offered.

Jaime and I are booked in to stay at the Lensbury hotel on the Friday and Saturday night. You can book the lensbury or travel lodge via:

If you go directly to the hotel you may not get the special rate.

Kay has booked 12 BBQ, 12 bus and 12 boat entries so all you need to book is you accommodation.
Please let me know if you intend to camp as we can book this for you.
Also let me know if you are bringing any supporters along as we would need to buy extra BBQ and bus tickets.

Hi all,
The great river race is now ready for booking. I have outlined the costs to give you an idea of the cost of the whole weekend.
Cost to enter the race: £58
Bus to the start line: £16
Camping: £27
Lensbury, teddington hotel: £100 per person for both nights (roughly)
Friday night BBQ: £12.50

So if you want to camp you are looking at £113.50 for the whole weekend.

If you want to stay in the hotel you are looking at £186.50 for the whole weekend.

I will be asking Kay to pay for both boats to be entered in to the race plus the Friday night BBQ tickets plus the bus tickets. You can secure your place by paying £86.50 in to the club account. Unfortunately we can not reserve spaces. Your position on the boat will only be confirmed on receipt of payment of £86.50

We current have 12 spaces (6 per boat) but if there is more demand I will source a 3rd boat.

It will then be down to individuals to book their own accommodation via.

The bus will be booked via the club so you only need to book your own accommodation

To clarify- I will be taking the boats on Friday to the start line and bringing the trailers to the finish line. The entertainment BBQ and Lensbury, teddington hotel are at the finish line.

If you would like to camp, please let me know and we can arrange this through the club. However, the campsite gets filled up fast so let me know as early as possible.

There is a passenger boat that follows the race if anyone would like to bring spectators along for the day. This will be down to individuals to book and can be done via
http://www.greatriverrace.co.uk/serv_pass_tckts.php
The passenger boat runs from the start to finish line so if your guests are staying overnight Friday they will also need to book a space on the shuttle bus.

The race it’s self is 21.6 Miles from London Docklands to Ham in Surrey
