Celina Governor's Cup Regatta
The Celina Governor’s Cup Regatta started in 1958 as
a joint venture between the Celina Lions Club and the St
Marys Boat Club and continued through 1970. After a
25-year hiatus, hydroplane racing returned to Grand Lake
St Marys in 1995. The original Governor’s Cup Trophy,
presented by Governor C. William O’Neil in 1958, was
restored and it continues to be the hallmark of this event.
Each year more than 30,000 spectators crowd the shoreline
along Lakeshore Drive in Celina, during our Free Family
Fun event weekend. Local Sponsors have the opportunity
to be part of the regatta. This Celina Governors Cup Regatta
is recognized throughout the country as a premier boat
race, bringing 70+ race boats with speeds ranging from 80
mph to over 140 mph. With speeds like this, dedicated
volunteers, committed sponsors, and the beauty of Grand
Lake St Marys, the Celina Governors Cup Regatta promises
to generate tremendous crowds and excitement for the
entire two days!
Fort Recovery State Museum

The 1794 Fort Recovery victory, by the Legion of the
