<DIV id=yiv1820288074>The organizing committee has been hard at work making sure the J/22 North Americans at Tawas Bay Yacht Club in Michigan is a great success.

Social tickets for additional team members or guests may be purchased for $60 at registration. Purchases at the club (including at the bar) while you’re here can be made on your temporary membership account which you can sign up for at registration. The social calendar includes: <BR><BR>On Saturday 9/8, Fleet 44 will host a barbeque. Come join us for a casual meal after a long day of travel and boat work.

followed by a Mexican buffet under the tent. There will be free keg beer and the special in the bar is Rear Commodore Derek Carroll’s choice of Seven and Sevens. <BR><BR>On Monday 9/10, there will be keg beer following racing.
