Wednesday Night Races

19 Jun

The first Wednesday night race will be Wednesday, June 21st. Notice of the race will be posted on June 16, 2016 at LYC. The race is planned to start from the club or from the south pier, racing to the buoy at the northwest corner of the pumped storage plant (outside the net) and returning to the south pier. The course may be modified due to wind and weather conditions at the time.
Please indicate your interest by signing the sheets posted on the bulletin board. Each skipper should enter the name of the boat and the boat manufacture or design. You can also indicate if you need or would accept additional crew. Make certain to enter your contact information so that the race committee can contact you in advance of the race.
If you don’t have a boat but would like to crew, there is also a “Crew Looking for a Ride” sign up posted at the club. Please sign, provide your phone and e-mail contact and indicate your experience level on the sign up form. We will try to match crew up to race entrants to accommodate as many of the skippers as possible.
This is supposed to be a fun even and an opportunity to blow some of the algae off the bottom of those boats, so please participate. If there is not adequate interest indicated on the sign- up sheets by Tuesday, June 20, the event will be cancelled, so step up to the plate and sign up. Get out there and celebrate the Summer Solstice
The next Wednesday night race will be July 5, 2017.
