2012 Calendar - Our 75th Year
Here is a list of club events for the season.
The calendar will be updated if our schedule changes.
If no location is listed, the event will be held out at the club.
Events at the club are held outdoors, so there may
be last-minute postponements or cancellations due to the weather.
Guests are invited to come out to the club twice free
of charge at any time. Some events may require advance registration or special skills, however.
Boats are available on a first-come first-serve basis
for open sailing at all times that the club is open except during
Saturday boat school and major regattas.
