First Practice Recap + Work Party

Hi all,

Thank you for a great first practice. We got through a lot of information and I am excited to get on the water!

The "tryout period" will end at the end of next week, March 6th being our last "tryout" practice. After that, any sailors who have not attended practice will be removed from both the roster and mailing list. 

Our next practice, Tuesday March 2nd, will be our first sailing day. All sailors should bring layers and wetsuits. Based on Tuesday's forecast, wetsuits will be required. Sailors should plan to meet at the Zuanich Point Park dock unless we say otherwise.
**Please note**: If the weather is especially nasty, we will move inside to BYC. As is true for all day-of changes, we would communicate it with everyone via Remind and email.

We have a drop-in, optional work party this Sunday, 1:00-4:00pm. Cooper and I will be there with snacks. We will be masting boats, replacing missing lines and jib springs, and overall prepping for the spring. Let us know if you plan on attending so we can make sure to have snacks for everyone! Don't worry if you cannot make it- sailors will get lots of boat masting practice throughout the season as we load and unload boats for regattas! :) 

Our first event of the season is the March 7-8 WINB Clinic at Lake Whatcom, a combined event with NW collegiate women's sailing. If any families are willing to host visiting high school sailors + chaperones on Saturday March 7th, please let me know! We have a few teams asking for a floor to sleep on.

Please let us know if you have any questions!


Best,
Anna
