Fall might really arrive this

Upcoming Regatta:
Halloween Spectacular (Spooktacular)
- Again this weekend, we'll be making more recommendations as to who is ready to sail in their first Green Fleet Regatta in October (Halloween Spooktacular). Some are ready, while, despite my best efforts, others are not quite there yet! We want everyone to have a GREAT, POSITIVE experience at their first regatta, so we'll make sure we bring those who are really ready, and really interested in going!
- Deadline for Registration is October 12, so all recommendations will be made by this Sunday, October 9.
