The Territorial River Regatta is a fun, relaxed float with family and friends....tubing on the gentle flow of the Colorado River. This year's Regatta is Saturday, June 29, 2013. The Territorial River Regatta is brought to you by Caballeros de Yuma, Inc. Trophy presentation will take place under the Ocean to Ocean Bridge approximately at 11 am

ENTRY: Please fill out and return the online entry form at territorialriverregatta.com (or fill it out and bring it with you that day). To participate in the Regatta, you must sign this registration and release form, pay a $5 fee and wear the numbered wristband provided by Caballeros.

LOCATION: The Regatta starts at 8 AM where the Gila River joins the Colorado River, the Confluence. For your ease and safety, please use this route only: Highway 95 to Avenue 6E to the Levee Road. Travel on the Levee Road back towards Yuma (West) about 2 miles to the drop off point at the Confluence. Regular passenger cars can easily make the trip but use caution and stay on the roads. Plan to drop passengers and floats and drive on. Please note that no formal parking is provided; drivers may need to walk some distance to the river.  EXIT: Debarkation is at West Wetland Park, entrance at 1st Street and 12th Avenue. Start to finish, the trip down the river typically takes about three hours but prevailing conditions will affect travel time. All support and services for the Regatta end at 2 PM

·         Bring your own float tube and equipment

·         Use of a Coast Guard-approved life jacket by each participant is strongly suggested

·         No children under 15 can register unless accompanied by parent or guardian

·         No glass is allowed in the river or at the entry and exit points
