Important instructions for Chuckwagon permits and parking at the Stotesbury Cup Regatta.
All Chuckwagons (or similar vehicles for team tables, grills, large supplies, etc.) must display a Chuckwagon Permit. Each team is limited to one Permit. The Permit is for the Chuckwagon ONLY.
Online Standard Registration for Chuckwagon Permits is available until May 2 or sold out. Late Registration carries an additional $30 fee and will close May 9th.
On-site Registration (if space allows) will be available at the Registration Tent in the Stotesbury Village on Thursday, May 15 from 3:30-6:00 pm.
The Chuck Wagon Permit is $115.00 if purchased during Standard Registration. A $30 additional fee is required for late online registration. On-site purchase during the regatta is $160.
Each team is allowed only one Chuck Wagon Permit.
100% of Chuckwagons should arrive on the Kelly Drive venue on Thursday between 3:30 pm and 8:00 pm. Between these hours, the tow vehicle for the Chuckwagon will NOT require an Entry Pass to access Kelly Drive. The Chuckwagon can therefore be "dropped" and left throughout the duration of the regatta.
NOTE: Teams that have completed and returned the Schuylkill Navy's Green Sustainability Pledge may arrive early beginning at 1:00 pm.
Any "late" Chuckwagons that arrive on Friday will require a separate Entry Pass for the tow vehicle, and only Coaches are given these Entry Passes. As a result, we do not recommend waiting until Friday to bring your Chuckwagon.
Kelly Drive will NOT close for the regatta until 12 pm on Thursday. Do NOT bring Chuckwagons onto the site before 3:30 pm (or 2:30 pm, if you have obtained Early Arrival Privileges). Chuckwagons arriving before this time will be turned away at the Entry Gate (and those parking in any lot ahead of this time may be towed off-site at the expense of the participating school).
No Chuckwagons may be parked to the LEFT (downriver side) of the Finish Line/Grandstand Parking lot driveway. This area is reserved for The Stotesbury Village and Chuckwagons WILL be towed from this location.
We will distribute the Chuck Wagon Permits on Thursday at on-site registration as well as the Philadelphia Scholastic Rowing Association City Championships. Any team representative may pick up and sign for the Chuckwagon Permit.
The Chuckwagon Permit must be displayed on the Chuck Wagon at all times during the regatta. Please affix Chuckwagons towards the "front" (closest to hitch) and right side (if facing the hitch).
Do not park on grass on either side of Kelly Drive. Violators will be ticketed by the Philadelphia Police. Parking of Chuck Wagons is only permitted on the river side of Kelly Drive.
Chuck Wagons should be parked at the river side curb. Please park in a manner to maximize the number of vehicles we may fit on Kelly Drive. Teams failing to do so may be asked to move (and, if needed, could risk rowing).
Obtaining a Chuck Wagon Permit does NOT include a space by the river for your food tent. You must arrange for this separately – see Tent section under Spectators.
