<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Everyone!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We have 34 boats presently signed up for this event which should be excellent, both on the water and off!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The J/22 Fleet has most things covered for the event, but does need some help from outside the fleet for a few things. If you can help, we would really appreciate it! The volunteer slots we need filled are posted in the DIBS board at:
<a href="https://www.wyc.org/dib_sessions/show/32395">https://www.wyc.org/dib_sessions/show/32395</a>. The jobs are food prep and clean up, registration, and regatta merchandise sale and take place while we are on the water or during meal/social times when
the fleet members will be occupied by participating in event activities. You will get food, if it is being served, and a regatta t-shirt.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">CREW LIST<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">There is a crew board for sailors that are interested in racing the J/22 North American Championship on June 20-23. I have heard there are a couple boats looking to fill spots (maybe even a skipper) and an out of town boat may need someone.
It would be a good idea to list your general sailing experience and any J/22 specific experience and what crew positions you can do and what you are best at.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If you are a boat looking for crew, there is a spot for that as well.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If your regular ride is not racing, sign up!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">SPECTATING<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We have had some inquiries about spectating and are discussing options including a charter boat on Saturday. If we don’t have a charter, there may be room on boats already going out to watch the race and that would be free, but we would
need to arrange a spot for you or your group. Proposed race times are:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thursday (Practice Race) 4:00-5:00<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Friday 10:00-4:00<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Saturday 10:00-4:00<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Sunday 10:00-2:00<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Please send me a note at <a href="mailto:cameron@bipl.net">cameron@bipl.net</a> if you are interested in spectating and if you would be willing to pay $20 per person for a charter boat with light snacks/cash bar on Saturday from 11-2.
Please include:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">1) times interested in spectating<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">2) number in your group for each time you are interested (4 for Friday 11-2)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">3) interest in the $20 charter<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We will try to place all spectators, but as you might imagine, matching sailors with boats going out and times may be a little difficult, so we will do our best.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">MERCHANDISE<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The online merchandise site is open! There will be limited merchandise on site, so get your orders in online, if possible.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><a href="http://stores.coralreefsailing.com/north_american_championship_201/shop/home">http://stores.coralreefsailing.com/north_american_championship_201/shop/home</a> I am working with Coral Reef on getting orders delivered to the regatta,
so that they will be timely.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I look forward to seeing you all at the event, either participating, volunteering, or spectating!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
