Governor’s Cup

[update: thanks to everyone for a great weekend! here are the race results]

Join us the weekend of September 24-26, 2010 for the Governor’s Cup Regatta at Austin Yacht Club.  We’ll have a silent auction Friday night and lots of racing on the weekend for keel-boats, centerboard boats, including starts for junior sailors.  This event is a fundraiser for the AYC Fund, which supports junior and adult sailing programs in central Texas.
