We hope this message finds you well. After careful consideration, we regret to inform you that the 7th Annual Benefit Regatta, originally scheduled for October 12, 2024, has been postponed to 2025.

While this decision was not made lightly, we believe it is in the best interest of our participants, sponsors, and the overall success of the event. We are committed to ensuring that the 2025 Benefit Regatta will be an even more exciting and impactful occasion.

Although the event has been postponed, your donations and contributions are still needed to support The WaterFront Center’s mission to connect people to the water through education and recreation. We are continuing with our fundraiser, and we kindly ask for your support. Every contribution helps us sustain our programs, including sailing instruction, marine science education, and outreach to underserved communities.

If you would like to participate in the fundraiser or need more information, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us at Jame@thewaterfrontcenter.org or (516) 922-7245 x33.

Thank you for your understanding and continued generosity. Your support ensures that we can continue providing meaningful experiences on the water for our community. We look forward to celebrating with you at the 2025 Benefit Regatta!

Warm regards,
Henriette Rohl
Benefit Regatta Chair, Board of Directors
