This was the first ever of this event on Lake Perry.
 |
| Skippers meeting |
There were 3 races on Saturday and 2 on Sunday.
 |
| Killer Sunfish sail |
Winds were light for the first race but then built to a good breeze by afternoon. There were other events as well. Rain Gutter Races for the kids. I suggested we set them back up late in the evening for the adults. Good thing they didn't. It could/would have turned ugly.

Cat vs Mono hull. Yeah - one of many reasons I am a mono hull girl.
 |
| Pitch poll - Capsize! |
Check out the winches on this one.
I bundled up all our old sailing porn (magazines) and try to sell those with only mild luck. I guess the yacht clubers aren't into sailing porn like we are. Strange - who doesn't like sailing porn?! I was able to sell 4 of Charlene's book about her solo sail to Alaska via the inside passage. *Posting soon to come on that. She donated $8 to L Cup on each book sold.

| $5 for bundles of 5 |
The raffle prize was a Galaxy (tablet?) and Sprint HotSpot. My good sailing sista Margie won!!

Pancake breakfast each morning, lunch and dinner Saturday night were all part of the fund raising.

| BBQ spread - YUM |

And Beer - "Red Solo cup, I fill you up. Red Solo cup, let's have a party."
 |
| Beer - YUM | |

Then the band started to play

 |
| Joan, Shirley, Margie - shaking their afts |
 |
| Sabrina and Charlene - cheers |
 |
| Tim and Kim |

 |
| Joan, Margie, Shelly - Sailin Sisters |
The rest of the evening was spent dancing and such. *For some reason the pics from later in the evening are a bit blurry and out of focus. Humm?? "Red Solo cup, what caused this?"
Besides the yacht club members, three yachts from LPYM came for the evening to join the fun for a good cause - s/v Patriot with crew Kim and Tim, s/v Split Wine with crew Kimberly and Michael, and s/v Rhapsody with crew Margie, Sea Salt and Misty. Hopefully this will be the first of many joint events.

Totals are still being added up but it looks like the event will have raised over $10,000! Impressive for the first year!
Looks like you guys had a BLAST! Sorry your sailing porn didn't prove to be more of a hit. I suspect a lot of the folks there had their own collections. Glad you had fun, though!
