Roz Savage is “paddling the Pacific Ocean, rowing towards a greener world, one stroke at a time” to become the first woman to row solo from California to Australia.

This year’s fundraiser will benefit Roz Savage and the work ORI does with small groups and environmental partners. The benefit will be held in the ballroom by the Regattabar – beginning with a multi-media presentation by Roz telling her stories from her Pacific journey. This will be followed by more informal time with Roz in the Regattabar, accompanied with live jazz by Grace Hughes and friends.

Single Tickets – $100/ticket

Couples – $150/ticket

Sponsor Tickets $250/ticket (preferred seating)

Special recognition will be given to people who give $250 or more

An opportunity for rowers and their families to meet Roz will take place in the Regatta Bar at 5 p.m., $10 admission. Rowing the Atlantic: Lessons Learned on the Open Ocean by Roz Savage will be available.
