SPECTATORS:
The tent is located on Kelly Drive on the race course. You will notice a long line of tents that look fairly identical. We usually put our bright purple Gonzaga Crew tents between the rented tent and the road to identify our spot. The other spot to watch the race would be at the grand stand, right by the finish line.
