The 40^th Annual Calibogue Cup 2010

October 16^th & 17^th – Save the Dates

By Bill & Judith Lawrenson

The 40^th Annual Calibogue Cup will be run on October 16^th & 17^th.It is the oldest continuing sailing race on the island. Jim Vaugh has agreed to head the Race Committee and Bill & Judith Lawrenson are the Calibogue Cup chairpersons.

The event will be a little different this year, as follows:

Friday Night from 6:00 PM ( Oct 15) – Registration, Skippers Meeting and Dinner

Saturday 8:00AM (Oct 16) - late registration, and the races follow later on Saturday and on Sunday.

Sunday (Oct 17) approximately 4:30 PM - Awards Ceremony with cash bar and hors d’ouvres (Thank you Nauti Ladies).

We will not have a Saturday night event, as they are less popular with sailors and committee folks who have typically had a hard day out on the water.

We expect to have Spinnaker, Non-Spinnaker and Harbor 20 classes, but classes will be finally determined by the number and type of entrants. Jim is looking for a bunch of Pirates and ships to assist as race officials, and the usual request for a flushing committee boat to head the race committee flotilla. We are looking for assistance at sign-up on Friday and Saturday and support on Friday night. Vaugh Business Systems and Petunia the Pirate are current event sponsors – we need more.

For more information see the notice of race on the club’s web site. We would love to see a big club turnout for the events, so save the dates. If you can help on race committee, please contact Jim at 842-2087 or at jim@vaughnbusiness.com. If you can help at signups, prize giving, selling raffle tickets, etc. please contact Bill or Judith at 683-2820 or at JLResource@aol.com
