During their attempt, Sarasota Crew will also sponsor an All Faith’s Food Drive. Rowers have spent the past three weeks collecting food donations at its crew site located at Bay Preserve in Osprey.
The Guinness World Records requires two witnesses supervise and document the attempt. These individuals must be unaffiliated parties, eliminating parents of rowers and the coaches. Anyone interested in being a witness please call Maureen Borden at 941-921-0056. There will be a morning and afternoon shift.
