<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Wayzata Yacht Club E-Blaster - March 28th
2009<BR><BR>CAPPY CAPPER <BR>Sailing is a pretty safe sport, but skiing is
dangerous. If you follow the gossip vines at all you may have heard that our
Community Sailing Center Director Cappy Capper (who's the best skier you'll
ever meet) was seriously injured last week while skiing. I'll spare
you the details other than to say the injuries were very very serious, but
he's now out of the ICU and a (mostly) full recovery is expected. Cappy will be
out of action for most of the summer. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Details of the accident and Cappy's recovery are
available at his Caring Bridge website. I encorage you to visit and leave a note
of encouragement.<BR><A

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Cappy will require full time care for the next
several months, which will be a significant strain on his family. Cappy's not
really a flowers guy, but audio books for Cappy and meal delivery coupons to
help his wife Martha and their two kids would be greatly appreciated.

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>SAILING CENTER UPDATE<BR>Dave Elsmo has been
appointed as the Interim Sailing Director to fill in while Cappy is going
through recovery. If you know Cappy, his skill is his ability to develop
programs and training systems that produce the best instructors and programs in
the country. All of that is still in place and local sailor Dave Elsmo will
be continuing those programs this spring and summer. The best way to support him
is to help fill those classes with your kids, the neighbor kids, kids from
school, or kids you find at the mall. It doesn't matter, just ship them off to
<A href="http://www.WayzataSailing.org">www.WayzataSailing.org</A> for some
sailing or racing camps. And trust me, full sailing camps will make Cappy
feel better.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><BR>JUDGE'S WORKSHOP<BR>On April 4th and 5th WYC
will host a full weekend Judge's Workshop. Now you might be saying to yourself
"what do I care about being a judge". But the truth that taking the judges
workshop is the best way to know the rules inside, outside, forward, backwards
and around the block. Take your sailing to the next level and be that rockstar.
