Upcoming Regattas

Great job to everyone this weekend.  Bellingham had a great regatta and qualified for Districts.  Thanks to the parents, especially Rob and Loraina, for driving two cars and providing such great food both days!

The upcoming schedule looks like this:

April 22-23 - The varsity teams only will go to Orcas for a two day team race regatta.  This will be Sehome varsity and possibly Bellingham varsity.  Everyone else will go to Anacortes for a 1 day regatta on Sunday only, not Saturday.

April 29-30 - This is Team Race District Champs in Oak Harbor and will likely only be Sehome, but possibly Bellingham.  But it depends on how both teams perform at Orcas.  If you lose most of your races then it may not be appropriate to go to this one. 

May 6-7 - This is Fleet Race District Champs in Cascade Locks OR.  This will only be Sehome and Bellingham varsity.  Coaches will pick who goes to this one, but if you want to be considered please indicate so by signing up on the regatta signup.

May 13-14 - This is the final fleet race of the season at Oak Harbor.  Everyone is welcome to attend. 

May 20-21 - This is the final team race of the season at Silverdale. Everyone is welcome to attend.

In order to plan these remaining regattas I need to have everyone fill out the regatta signup.  Please do this ASAP.  Here is the link: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/11I6siGsA7Rv1akjqlePjGLAvvKmJ6aHjiJ0IaVjm8to/edit#gid=283052418

Driving this Weekend

Sailors and Parents,

I can confirm that the Waldorf school finally got back to me and we can not stay there this weekend.  So we all will need to drive back Saturday evening.  Drivers, I have heard some of you were thinking of staying in a hotel, but this would be a problem since we have kids driving down with all of you.  Drivers, please confirm you are able to drive down and back both days.

ALSO, we are still short seats.  Can we get one more parent to volunteer to drive?
Here's what I have now, drivers please confirm your seats.
