Have many other events seen a drop of in entries this year? If so, is there a pattern across all of them-perhaps the national recession?

More likely to be a cause of the new points system that has increased even further the disincentive for anyone to race too often.

We'll pretty soon reach the tipping point where there is a catastrophic collapse, and all the river regattas die out.

Now is the time for action - and I know we are not alone in being concerned. As Chris A would agree, you need to make representations to your Div Rep who is your voice on the BR Council.
