The 2017 Junior Sailing Calendar is up on the club website.  Click here to link to it. 

The season starts with the Geist Spring Laser Regatta, where valuable experience is gained through racing against some of the best Laser sailors in the Midwest.  This is typically a great season starter and the first time on the water in competition. This April regatta provides our team with great early season training while they wait for the first I-LYA Junior Regatta in June at Berlin Sailing Club.  The season quickly gets busy in June with six regattas in the month!  Mentor Harbor, Sandusky, Edgewater, and North Cape. Many miles are going to get put on the tow vehicles that month!  July consists of three regattas with one of them being I-LYA Junior bay week.  The I-LYA Junior season ends with two regattas in August at Hoover and Erie.  In September, we will go to Lake Lemon for the Lake Lemon Regatta. This has become traditionally the last outing for the Juniors, and is always loads of fun.

The summer sailing camp plans are nearly finalized.  The camps  are scheduled for the week of June 19-23 and  June 26-30th.  The registration forms should be on-line shortly. Stay Tuned to the Sail Camp Page for more information.  I was hoping to have them up by now, but ran into a little snag.
