<DIV>Greetings all,</DIV>
<DIV>
<DIV>I will start with an apology for not notifying you sooner that the J22
Grill & Chill night at the Minnetonka Yacht Club was moved from Aug 19th
(listed in the MYC 2009 Program) to this Wednesday, Aug
12th. We hope that the good weather and a great asian menu can
entice a few of you cover over on Wednesday night, race, and then join us for
the grill. We have been taste testing the recipes and so far
everything has been a hit at our house. The full menu
includes:</DIV>
<DIV>Bulgogi Marinated Steak (Korean), </DIV>
<DIV>Five Spice Grilled Chicken, </DIV>
<DIV>Thai Peanut Noodle Salad, </DIV>
<DIV>Oriental Cabbage Salad, </DIV>
<DIV>bread, </DIV>
<DIV>Mandarin Orange Cake. </DIV>
<DIV>The yacht club also provides beer & lemonade.</DIV>
<DIV>Two important things to consider if you plan to come. 1) if you
are planning to race, the first gun is at 6:00p m due to the fact that the
nights are getting shorter already. All Wednesday night races start and
end near Light House Island so you will either have an upwind
start/downwind finish or a downwind start (always interesting)/upwind
finish. 2) the grills are approx $13/person ($12 + tax). Most
members charge their meals to their club account so we generally have little or
no cash on hand for making change. <U>Please bring correct change if
possible</U>. </DIV>
<DIV>For those of you with kids that want to come for the more relaxed race,
fewer boats on the line and easy access to dinner after the race, we also
provide "Little Tykes" meals (a hotdog, chips and a toy) for the kids for just
$3:00.</DIV>
<DIV>Hope to see a few of you out there Wednesday night. </DIV>
<DIV>All the best,</DIV>
<DIV>Mark & Sandy Christensen</DIV>
