WEDNESDAY NIGHT RACING
≈You've been Blogged! ≈
Cheryl Jasper, a Spinnaker Sailing Club member, has been doing a great job Blogging about the Wednesday night beercan races. If you race, you probably found yourself in print- especially when you won! If not I would suggest buying the above woman a beer and telling her all bout the fun you had during the race! Also, any racer can sign up to comment on the blog and you can add your two cents or start discussions on racing rules, right of way, etc. . . This will probably prove to be a great learning tool. If you are a club member and would like to participate, Sign up to get your own boat, or be part of a crew. Be here by 5:15pm or so to ensure you don't miss the boat. There is a BBQ and drinks afterward at the Sequoia Yacht Club.
