<DIV>If you're not on this list and planning on racing, please let me know. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><U>Registration and weigh-in</U> will begin at the club at 5:00 pm on Friday, followed by a <U>Fleet meeting</U> at 7:00. Refreshments and snacks will be provided afterwards. It will open up again at 8:00 am on Saturday until the Skipper's meeting at 9:00 am.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>A registration form is attached; you can print and fill it out in advance (leave weigh-in BLANK) or we will have them available on Friday. You can also pre-pay with a credit card for Fleet and regatta dues on the Fleet web site. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Following racing there will be <U>refreshments and dinner courtesy of our sponsor Heineken</U> - with some help from Jill and Carmela. We will provide mixers but as of now THE RUM BAR IS BYO. Dr. Lori will again be providing chiropractic consultations and chair massages for everyone who's another year older and feeling the effects of four races!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Feeling lucky? Don't bang the corner, <U>buy some raffle tickets</U>. We have some great leftover gear from the 2006 NA's including a beer fridge, boathandling CD and set of spinnaker sheets that will be given away. Tickets will be sold at registration and at the Saturday party.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Finally, we need <U>one volunteer to help out on Jurisprudence</U> - this is a great way to watch the action live and learn a few of Blake's race management secrets. Please let me know if you're interested. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Questions? Call or e-mail. See you Friday. </DIV>
