AJRA rowers just returned from Boston this weekend where we were represented by 3 Varsity boats for our 2nd time!  It is an honor to compete in the Head of the Charles — the largest and one of the most prestigious regattas in the world. The event features more than 9,000 rowers from 19 counties competing over a two-day period along a course lined with spectators.
