86th Annual Jefferson Dad Vail Regatta Program Book

2025 CAMDEN COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS The Board of Commissioners is proud and honored to host the 86th annual Jefferson Dad Vail Regatta on the Cooper River in the award-winning Camden County Parks System. In 2023, the event moved from its typical venue at the Schuylkill River National Racecourse, to the waters of Cooper River Park and each year since, the event has brought thousands of fans and athletes to Camden County. We are humbled that for the third year in a row, Camden County will be hosting the Jefferson Dad Vail Regatta and we are incredibly grateful that the Board of Directors of the Dad Vail Regatta Organizing Committee chose our world-renowned venue once again as the location for this prestigious event. Cooper River Park in Pennsauken is home to many prestigious rowing events and boasts a world-class, Olympic-distance, 2000-meter narrow and sheltered straightaway. Cooper River Park encompasses 346 acres through Pennsauken, Cherry Hill, Collingswood, and Haddon Township. In addition to the boathouse, the park has several top-quality amenities for visitors to enjoy which includes: a brand new skatepark, a newly renovated children’s playground with pavilions, a softball field, a cross-country course, the Camden County Driving Range, the Cooper River Yacht Club, bike trails, Jack Curtis Stadium, a track, picnic areas, Veterans Island, a brand-new dog park, a bocce court and more. We cannot wait to welcome everyone back to Cooper River Park for another wonderful weekend at the Jefferson Dad Vail Regatta. Camden County Board of Commissioners LOUIS CAPPELLI, JR.
