The Walter Johnson Crew Club, a high school student rowing club in Bethesda Maryland
The Head of the Anacostia race is set in the heart of the Nation’s Capital and passes by Nationals Stadium, among other local landmarks. The Head of the Potomac (HOTP) is the next day, Sunday September 27th, on the other side of town. The WJ Crew varsity team will participate in HOTA or HOTP, but not both.
HOTA is the only regatta we know of that includes an apple pie contest after the race. Apple pie for all!
