Looking for Some Long Weekend Fun? The legendary Royal Canadian Henley Regatta, North America’s largest rowing regatta, starts on Sunday, August 3 in St. Catharines. It’s the 132nd edition of this prestigious competition and with 3,000 athletes, it’s the largest test event we have for the Games. For those who like variety, you can catch five sports in one competition at the 2014 Canadian Pentathlon Championships, which start on Friday, August 1 and run until Sunday, August 3. The events are split between Guelph and Moffat and include fencing, swimming, equestrian as well as the run and shoot. These are just a taste of what we have planned in August. In fact, we have more test events this month — nine — than any other month leading up to the Games. What better way to cap off a great summer? |
