Individual Corporate Women - 1000M
Chain-of-Command Relay - 4 x 500m
Charity & Corporate Relay - 2 x 250m + 2 x 500m

What's Chain-of-Command Relay?

Form a team of 4, all members have to be from the same company, each from different hierarchies within the company, and each will row 500m.

No gender restrictions.

How can your company row for a GOOD cause?

Your corporate organization will adopt a beneficiary from a list of the potential beneficiaries that we have provided you with. (target: youths)

There is no maximum number of beneficiaries your company can adopt.
Once chosen, your company will be investing a sum of money no less than S$200 for each charity organization you have adopted. This amount will help to pay for the beneficiaries' registration fees and as well as placed into the CHARITY CHALLENGE POOL.

You & your respective beneficiaries will then fight it all out in the individual and relay races to win this lump sum of money in this POOL.

What is the Charity & Corporate Relay?

This will be the time you and the children from your adopted beneficiaries can row together! 2 members from your company and 2 children form a team. Adults will row 500m each and children only 250m. So total distance of the race will be 1500m.

So, why not do something different this October with your bosses & colleagues?

Do it for the workout, the fun & for charity. :)
