Practice Schedule and tentative regatta schedule posted

The team will practice Monday-Friday from 3:30-6:30 through October. The plan is to leave the school parking lot in a minibus for travel to the Norfolk Naval Sailing Center, arriving around 4:00. If you access to the Naval Base you may meet us there, but don't be late! We have the boats reserved from 4:00-6:00. We leave the sailing center at 6:00 to return to school around 6:30.

The fleet race regatta schedule has not been finalized yet, but I anticipate that it will be similar to last year's (shown on the right-hand side bar.) Once this year's schedule is set I will update the information. At this point we will only compete in fleet races. The VISA has a team race schedule on Tuesdays at NYCC, but for this inaugural season we will not participate in it.

There are two late season "out of district" regattas that we might attend: the Larry White ISSA Invitational on October 15th and 16th at the US Coast Guard Academy in Connecticut and the College of Charleston Intersectional on October 22nd and 23rd in South Carolina. Both of these regattas require upper level performance in the local races and our team's participation is by selection of the organizing authorities.
