The Halifax Rowing Association recently competed in and celebrated its 20th anniversary for the Halifax Regatta on Saturday and Sunday, July 23-24, on the Halifax River.
The association welcomed 30 clubs from the southeast region, including Georgia and Louisiana. The junior teams competed on Saturday and the Masters on Sunday. Together, they won nine gold medals, five silver and bronze.
