The board met this week and after some discussion, we believe that it is in the best interest of the club and public health to continue practicing social distancing and general safety guidelines.
As a result, we will be converting some of the events that are usually held at the club into other events like Summer Races, etc. We are also putting together some virtual classes that will be posted on our Facebook page.
This does not mean that the clubhouse is closed- feel free to use the facilities and the Sunfish at any time while maintaining social distancing.

EVENT RECAP- May 23rd LYC Flat-Out Wine Race

Rob and John D. finished first but with no wine, Dave finished second, Mike W., Kenny and Mitch finished third but had more wine than Dave, so in the spirit of the event, Mike W., Kenny and Mitch were the winners. Peter and I bobbed along in fourth (although we had the most wine left over). J.C. finished fourth but he drank all the wine before the start. It was good to see everyone out and thanks to everyone who participated.

SAVE THE DATE – Saturday June 6th Summer Race II 4p

We will have a skippers meeting via VHF at 3:30p- hoping for a 4p gun. Peter will set the course and send out a notice of race next week. Let’s get out on the water and have some sailing fun.

SAVE THE DATE – Saturday June 20th LYC Founders Regatta 1p

Buoy racing is back! Peter will put together an exciting race for Founders. I have signed us up to use RegattaNetwork.com for NOR’s, entries, etc. Stay tuned for more information.

SAVE THE DATE- Saturday July 4th LYC Sunfish Regatta 11a

An event is being planned. Peter and I are going to experiment with launching the boats from one of the beaches. Clearly this year will be a little different overall, but we are determined to continue as many events as possible while following CDC guidelines.
