PSU sailing: Cougar Cup Recap & Practice this week

Hey Sailors,
Thank you to everyone who went with us to Vantage this past weekend.
The wind was absolutely crazy all weekend and we were only able to get
3 races off on saturday. However, that didn't stop us from having a
good time. John was brave and didn't cry once through multiple
capsizes, laceration to the face, and numerous wood gathering treks.
Will stood his ground and sailed at his first regatta taking home the
Wisest Wizard award. Justin serenaded a few people with his rhythmic
jams while Sky protected us with his wushu long fist.

I would like to give a big thanks to Kyle Eaton and Scott Wilson for
doing Race Committee and helping right all of the capsized boats as
well as saving some off the rocks.

We will be practicing at 3:30 on Wednesday and Friday. All are
welcome and the more the merrier.

Don't forget to mark your calendars for Saturday's work party. We
will be painting the dock box as well as building and restore a couple
berths. This shouldn't take too long if there is a good amount of
people there. If we finish early enough and there is good wind we
will go out sailing. This is a mandatory event for all members and
people planning on being members this year. When we all pitch in a
help out on these days, it helps keep our dues lower. Also there will
be a party Saturday night our (Tom, Adam, & Julia's) new house.

The next regatta will be North/North in Seattle Washington on the
weekend of October 4th and 5th. Please mark your calendars and let me
know if you plan on going as soon as possible.

As always, if you have any questions please don't hesitate to email or
call. See you all on the water wednesday.
