<div><STRONG>VIVA LAS BIG ISLAND</STRONG></div>
<div>Congratulations to Viva for using a mid race restart to move from last-start to first-to-finish status in Saturday's Big Island Series. Such a stupefying display of old age and treachery used to decimate the entire WYC fleet was truly a treat to watch. Congratulations!</div>
<div> </div>
<div>But that was last week...it all starts over again next weekend????</div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div><STRONG>BIG WEEKEND<BR></STRONG>Yes, the Spring Regatta, the Aquatenial Regatta, the ADA Regatta, the WCSC Regatta, call it whatever you want, but next weekend is the big social regatta weekend for the entire club. This is a new year with some new stuff, but there's still plenty of wine and plenty of weekend racing. Get signed up now for Wine On Wayzata Bay and the WCSC Community Regatta.</div>

<div style="PADDING-LEFT: 30px"><STRONG>- WINE ON WAYZATA BAY<BR></STRONG>You know how this works, buy some tickets online, invite some friends and have a great night of wine tasting on the WYC grounds. Tickets go fast for this event, and it typically sells out, so do it right now. <BR><a href="http://www.wineonwayzatabay.com/ ">http://www.wineonwayzatabay.com/ </a>; </div>

<div style="PADDING-LEFT: 30px"><STRONG>- WCSC COMMUNITY REGATTA<BR></STRONG>The ADA Regatta is now the WCSC Community Regatta. Same great racing with only some minor changes. We've compressed the racing down to three races on Saturday, and while we have the same great competitive racing we've also added a second layer of scoring that credits boats with kids or newbie sailors aboard. This is a great race for you to bring your regular crew or to bring the family, friends, or neighbor kids. We'll even have special awards for kids under age 16 who helm. Afterwards there's a great party with a gigantic ice cream bar. <BR><a href="http://www.wineonwayzatabay.com/WCSCRegatta.aspx">http://www.wineonwayzatabay.com/WCSCRegatta.aspx</a> </div>

<div style="PADDING-LEFT: 30px"><STRONG>- SILENT AUCTION<BR></STRONG>Both Friday and Saturday of next weekend will have a silent auction. Anyone can come by and bid, but first we (always) need more donations for the Silent Auction. If you'd like to make an auction donation contact Ryann at <A href="mailto:ryann.rathman@yahoo.com">ryann.rathman@yahoo.com</A> </div>

<div style="PADDING-LEFT: 30px">- NIGHT CRAWLER<BR>After the WOWB, and after the Saturday Regatta, and after the silent auction....there will be a night crawler for you hard core folks. Grilling starts around 6:00pm, sailing starts after that. Bring a boat or just bring yourself, it all works out in the end. <BR><a href="http://www.wyc.org/Groups/NightCrawler.aspx ">http://www.wyc.org/Groups/NightCrawler.aspx </a>; </div>
