style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">Liz Greene, of Evergreene Jewelers
fame, has once again shown her support for our sport in general and the J22
fleet #1 in particular by not only donating prices but also a "helluva"
nice trophy - The Evergreene Cup. The cup is a traveling trophy
to be awarded to the winner of the J22 Districts Championship every year!
I believe this will fast become a coveted trophy along the lines of Americas Cup
and other famous sailing trophies. Make sure you thank Liz for her
continued support!</SPAN><o:p></o:p></P>

style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">Evergreene is not alone in
supporting this event. Michelob and Budweiser are supplying refreshments
aplenty as well as Diamond Reef Sails&Canvas who is buying a keg for
the festivities. West Marine, Helly Hansen and Quantum Sails are supplying
more prices. It'll pay of to stick around for the awards ceremony this
year!</SPAN><o:p></o:p></P>

(for us)</SPAN> Lars is off taking the budding young scientist,
Otto, to college but I am sure he has rounded up a "killer" team to run the
865 in a ultra competitive fashion. I also hear rumors of J24 sailors
claiming they can teach us a lesson or two<SPAN class=235462917-16092005>
(right)</SPAN>??? Who can resist taking on such a
line-up!</SPAN><o:p></o:p></P>

Anderson for not only organizing the regatta party; he has also gotten
Evergreene, Michelob/Budweiser and Quantum on board as sponsors. Make sure
you show your appreciation by eating and drinking well on Saturday and give him
a BIG HUG if you happen to see him. Thanks Nick! I would also like
to thank George Hansen for his relentless and repeated pursuit of sponsors for
the fleet!<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>It means a lot to me
personally that you guys and others stepped up to make this a great regatta.
