Patrons enjoyed the finals at the Crew Classic with an elegant champagne Brunch. Brunch guests, including Caspar Bentinck, Glynn Bolitho, Madeleine Considine, Alexandra De Maria, Briede Charbonnet, Beth Cortney, Catalina Kapicka, Kent Casady, Lindsey Webster, Nick Bea, Susan Francia, Brian Dunn, Rob Hill, Pat Maher, Sally Scovel, Mark Zdunich, Stan Cwiklinski, and Peter Mallory, enjoyed the best views of the finish line and trophy stage. Multiple screens featured the livestream of the regatta, showing all the races from start to finish. The brunch is a longstanding tradition at the Crew Classic that celebrates the joy and spectacle of top-tier springtime rowing. Rowing has been part of San Diego’s history since 1888, and the San Diego Crew Classic is ensuring this tradition will live on.
