Occoquan Boat Club (OBC) welcomes you to the 2026 Occoquan Memorial Sprints Regatta (OMS)

About OMS - Net proceeds from OMS go to the Julia Shew Memorial Scholarship Fund administered by OBC.  Over the years this fund has awarded over $150,00 to several hundred deserving rowers/coxes that practice on the Occoquan Reservoir. This season the fund saw exceptionally high needs and awarded over $39K in scholarships to over 50 rowers.

Race Format and schedule - All races will be 1000 meters on the fully buoyed 6 lane course. We will be using a start platform and start tower. Timing results will be immediately available on-line. Enjoy a complimentary ice cream treat after your race.

Parking - All parking for OMS is on-site and costs $10 per car, cash only, exact change greatly appreciated.  There will be a limited shuttle to the grandstand for this event (prioritized for those needing assistance).
