Physical and Atheltic Packet

Just a reminder that our first practice is in two weeks and everyone must have a physical form completed and athletics packet turned before that practice.  Since this has not been a normal requirement I don't want you to forget.  See your athletic director for these forms.  

Also don't forget about our Pre-Season meeting next Monday, 6pm at Lakewood!

See you then,

Sailing Team - Pre-Season Meeting

Sailors and Parents,

Our pre-season meeting will be Monday Feb 18th at 6pm at the Lakewood Lounge.  This meeting is for both sailors and parents, so both please plan on attending. 

We have many important topics to cover including practice and regatta schedules and hosting of a couple regattas this spring.  Please bring copies of your personal calendars so we can make some plans. It will also be a good meeting to attend for new sailors interested in joining the team.  Please pass on this email to anyone you think might want to join.

Practice and Regatta schedule are posted on the website: http://www.whatcomsailing.com/schedule.html

Practice starts Tuesday Feb 26th and our first regatta is March 2nd in Seattle.

Attached are packets for new sailors and returning sailors.  Please fill out the forms in your packet and bring them to the pre-season meeting.  IN ADDITION, all sailors new or returning must pick up an athletic packet from your school, fill it out, and return it to your school.  Everyone must complete this athletic packet and get a physical before the first practice, so please take care of that ASAP.  There are only a handful of you who have done this, so please check with you athletic director to find out your status.

Feel free to contact me if you have questions!  See you soo,

Team Ski Trip

Hi sailors!
I know a lot of you expressed interest in a team ski trip up at Baker this season. For dates, Scott and I were thinking either Saturday, Dec 29th or Sunday, Dec 30th. We need to plan for drivers, so if you are interested in coming please respond with the date that works best for you, or if both dates work just let me know that you want to come. If you don't make it known that you are coming there won't be a seat in a car for you, so please do respond! It would also be great if we could get a few parents willing to drive.
Happy holidays!

Sehome / Bellingham Win Hawaii IMU Regatta

Last weekend our Sehome and Bellingham varsity teams traveled to Hawaii for the IMU Regatta.  The Sehome team represented by Miles, Elise, Jack, and Lisa placed 1st overall!  The Bellingham team of Riley and Elsa combined with Jeremy and Andrew from North Kitsap and placed 3rd overall.  2nd place was Athenian from San Francisco who is coached by our friend Andrew Nelson.  There were 10 teams at the regatta, 5 from California, 3 from Hawaii, and our two Northwest teams.  Racing was competitive, but we were always near the front.  Both teams sailed smart and consistent which helped gain them the win.  It was a great regatta all around.  So congrats to the team!  Results are attached.
