Sailing, San Francisco, Fundraising

Another great job by everyone this weekend in another windy regatta.  Winds yesterday were a steady 15+ mph with gusts as high as 30!  A special congratulations to Robyn who finished 2nd overall in the Northwest Youth Circuit Laser Radial season standings.  We will be posting pictures soon to the blog on our website www.whatcomsailing.com.

We have 2 weekends off from racing before we head back down to Seattle for Cascadia Cup and McCurdy cup.  After that we would like to send some of our varsity sailors to San Francisco to race with some of the top programs in the country.  The regatta we would be attending is held at the San Francisco Yacht Club on November 5th and 6th.  We would leave on Friday Nov 4th and return Monday the 7th.  Preliminary costs look to be around $250-300/per sailor.  We would like to purchase tickets and get everything arranged by the end of the week.  Please discuss with your parents and let us know by the end of the week if you would like to go and can for sure go.  If you have any questions about how an event like this typically works please give us a call and we can chat.

Fundraising Committee - We would like to set up a parent fundraising committee to help us raise money for the program.  If you are interested in helping with this please let us know.  We will have a meeting shortly to discuss potential fundraising opportunities.

Thanks, see you at practice tomorrow!
