I came across this magazine, Skymall, on the Amtrak train when I was travelling between cities in California and it had what you were looking for. At the time, I thought it would be perfect for dragonboat but it's quite expensive. I think this magazine is found on the back of every seat on a plane as well. Here's the website:

smartest idea i've ever heard.  That tent looks like a portapotty to me though  haha

I don't know if it's a cheaper alternative, but what about picking up a folding screen (3 or 4 panels usually), if your team has a tent with wall panels, you could easily use a screen,

I'll probably look around in Chinatown next time to see if they sell screens cheap

Have you thought about simply making one?  Get some of the 1/2" diameter white PVC pipe from Home Depot and the needed fittings to make the frame.  Make two squares to form a top and bottom frame and then use 6 or 7 foot long uprights to give you the needed height.  A quick trip to a fabric store and you're done.

Do it right and it breaks down into a reasonable small package.

Thanks for all you input, I did find a change room on-line for under $50 (tax, shipping and exchange included), at Sportsman's Guide web site.  Have a looksee

Thanks again

If you search around some more on that website you'll find one for only $20 US, looks like the one earlier posted but in green.  Mine should be here in a week.

Awww Special K!

Why do you need some privacy? Is it that you are shy when you have to change clothes after races? Come on after the last 2 years and with one particular team mate of ours who always changed in front of everybody I would think you might be comfortable too by now and do the same? LOL NO you say? Ok. I can understand!

Good job on posting the link though so that we can look at it too! Maybe our team can use something like that too right Spaceman Spiff? Gee I hope I know who you are SPIFF! Otherwise I have my head in the wrong place if you know what I mean! LOL

Teamwork is so important that it is virtually impossible for the team to reach the heights of it's capabilities or achieve winning results without becoming very good at it. You must practice TEAMWORK as a team, not as individuals!

As long as it isn't at waist level in front of me, it's all good!
