2022 Sailing Regatta

We look forward to seeing all sailors out for this years’ sailing regatta.

The races will be in the central part of the lake, beginning at 2PM on Sunday July 31st, 2022.

As you may know, we are now running two races – the usual Championship race, and a Junior Championship race for our up-and-coming sailors (those under 18).
