Hello all club members and racers!
I'm excited to announce that our 2021 race season will be beginning soon!
The Beer Can marks have been dropped in courtesy of Russ and Richard, and we're set for the first Beer Can on May 12th! I expect to see all boats out there including dinghies, life rafts, and driftwood, If you can fashion a sail to it, it's race worthy!
We're going to try something different this year, and introduce a new element to the beer can races called the "Sail Missions". For the months of June, July, and August, we will be holding an award ceremony and party for the crew that wins the most Beer Cans per month!
Being a space nerd, I've named the monthly series accordingly -
June - Mercury Series
July - Gemini Series
August - Apollo Series
There will be no fees or sign-ups for this, and beer cans will be for everyone to enjoy as usual.
For the Weekend and Tahoe Cup races, the first race will be the Around the Pins race on June 13th. The full schedule will be posted soon.
This will be my first year as Rear Commodore and I'm excited for what I'm going to bring to the table. If anyone has any complaints or criticisms, I'm open to hearing them, and have attached a complaint box to a rock and dropped it into the middle of the lake.
Happy Sailing!
Sam Corso
Rear Commodore SLTWYC
