Madison Regatta, Inc. is a working organization that stages unlimited hydroplane races on the July 4th of July weekend each year. This includes festival events, limited classes of boat races, media events, hospitality events, and sponsorship events.

  • 5. If you have a problem please go to your committee chairperson, or to the officer over your committee.
    6. If the committee(s) for which you are volunteering are finished prior to race weekend, offer to volunteer for other events that need to be covered.
    7. Altercations, profanity, or fighting will not be tolerated.
    8. During race week, it is critical that we work as a team. We must conduct ourselves as professionals. If unacceptable behavior is observed during any Regatta Event, an officer or board member is authorized to remove your membership badge and wristband.
