Really Chili Regatta
October 26, 2024
The Really Chili Regatta is an annual one day regatta hosted by Row Nova Scotia in October. The Really Chili is raced on the 1000m buoyed course on Lake Banook in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia. This is a fun regatta that uses a time trial format intended to create fast, fun, and competitive racing for everyone. With this regatta coming just days before Halloween we encourage crews and rowers to dress up in costume and enjoy a great day of racing and stick around at the end for a steaming hot bowl of chili!
