This weekend

A couple things: 

1.  This weekend we need one more driver in order to get everyone down there.  Please let me know if you can drive soon.  Christine, Sawyers mom, has offered to drive down Saturday if someone could pick up a load on Sunday.  So far we have Steve, Andrea, Alan, Bill and myself driving.

2.  Tomorrow, Friday, we are meeting at 4pm at the zuanich point dock to load two boats.  See you then.

Octoberfest this Weekend

This weekend is Octoberfest.  We have almost everyone going this weekend: Liam H, Elise, Mallory, Sophia, Nick, Shea, Courtney, Liam M, Benj, Chase, Ali, Zach, Ben, Lexy, Riley, Will, Jack, Ondrea, Jeffrey, Ian (Sat), Maia, Jacob, Johnny, Sawyer.

I will assume everyone wants to sail in the FJ fleet unless you tell me otherwise.  Lasers are also an option.

We will be leaving early Saturday morning and returning Sunday evening.  Meet at the Sehome Haggens parking lot at 7:00am Saturday morning. We will likely return to Bellingham around 7pm Sunday evening. The cost for the weekend is $30 and additional meals are available for family members to purchase ($5 for lunch and $10 for dinner). You can bring cash or check for the entry fee.  Checks made out to SAIL SAND POINT. The cost includes lunches both days and dinner Saturday night.  We will be staying the night down in Seattle, at Liams Grandpas house. Bring sleeping bag, pillow and pad.  Also bring some cash for stopping at Safeway on Sunday morning for breakfast.  And, attached is a registration form and waiver for the regatta.  It would be very helpful if everyone filled this out and brought it with you saturday morning.  

PARENT: We will need parents to drive, so let me know if you can, and how many kids could fit in your car. Parents are welcome to sleep with the team also, but it may mean sleeping on the floor as well.

Anyone else who isn't sailing should come and help run races. Meet at the BYC at 9am each day.  NOR is here. Cost for the sailors is $25 each.  Everyone else can purchase a dinner ticket for $15.

We could use some help with food.  We are providing lunches for the sailors each day, plus dinner Saturday night.  If you can help with food in anyway, such as shopping for the food, preparing the food, or serving the food, please let me know and I will give you a job.

Thanks,
