VOGA CAMP E LAGUNA BABY

The Soul of Venice is still alive

Via Venetian Rowing I have known people who hold valuable treasures Stories and traditions to pass down through generations to help to save the delicate balance and identity of a city that is unique in the world. – Gloria Rogliani – Rowing Champion.

A short distance from the historic centre and the streets frequented by mass tourism, another Venice offers visitors who a chance to discover the lagoon eco system an environment which is no less historic, no less Authentic Venetian. This is 'the Venice of the smaller islands, a wide expanse of water and earth semi-emerged where the silent landscape is consistent with the flow of the tides. The traditional lagoon boats resist the noisy aggressiveness of the motor engines, colours of water earth and sky mix with the red brick of human construction and where the sandbanks offer homes to the inhabitants of the lagoon : egrets, herons, gulls, hawks , kingfishers .... It 'a Venice where the nature is intact, but where traces of man and his passing tell an old story: a world miraculously remained intact, similar to that in the sixth century welcomed residents from Aquileia, who fleeing from Attila and the Huns, would later founded Venice.

Through the attachment of Venice to the Kingdom of Italy , the races became the celebration of the glorious past of the Venetian Republic .

In 1899, with a proposal from the mayor of Venice , Count Filippo Grimani the regatta added the ‘history’ – Storica. . Up until now l the rowing season involves all the islands and each island has its own race ( regatta) and its champion .
