The Middlesex County Volunteer Rescue Squad’s (MCVRS) Rescue Regatta returns with racing, exhibits and two evenings of good food, and good music on July 12 and 13 and hosted by the Deltaville Maritime Museum (DMM). Organizers expect to surpass the 2023 success in funds raised and in fun had. Registration details can be found in the coming weeks at rescueRegatta.life.

The Deltaville Maritime Museum, well known by all in Middlesex and surrounding communities as a wonderful venue for nature walks, music in the park and celebration of the area’s maritime culture and history, has graciously become a foundational sponsor of the Rescue Regatta.

Fishing Bay Yacht Club, another of our foundational sponsors, designed the course and will officiate the race. Expect the Notice of Race and registration details to be posted in coming weeks.

During the evenings of the 12th and the 13th, bids can be placed on offerings from the Rescue Regatta 2024 silent auction. Items to be offered will be posted online in the coming weeks at rescueRegatta.life.
