The University of the Fraser Valley rowing club will host its seventh annual regatta – Head of the Fort – on the Bedford Channel in Fort Langley on Saturday (March 7).

The public is invited to attend the 6.5-kilometre racing event that includes junior, university and Masters crews

There will be three launches during the regatta – 9:30 a.m., 11:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m.

The event is put on by the UFV varsity team rowers and organizers say the  bridge over the Bedford Channel is a good vantage point to watch the races.

The field will be comprised of local rowing clubs.
