Balloon Chase

The race committe works extra hard for this race, inflating hundreds of balloons to be released along the race course. The crew scooping up the most balloons wins - the competition is fierce with an ingenious array of "scooping tactics." As if this were not enough fun, the annual Ice Cream Freeze Off contest and tasting takes place in the club house immediately after the race.

When: Saturday, August 7th
Where: 3:30 PM Skipper's Meeting at the Super Dock

Build a Boat And Duct Tape Regatta

This 2008 addition to our annual events pits Docks B, C, & D, Youth Sailors and Trailer Sailors against each other to build boats from the basically provided materials of styrofoam board and duct tape. From then on, each group's creativity and design plans will determine the ultimate winners. After the allotted building time, the boats are placed in the water and the race is on. Camaraderie and competition abound!

Fall Festival Regatta

This "end of summer" racing event is paired with the annual Labor Day Barbecue.
