Boomerang is Around the Corner!

To Lauderdale Junior Sailing Community-

The annual Boomerang Regatta is the signature event of our sailing program.  As host we are afforded an opportunity to showcase everything the LYC Junior Sailing community and the club at large have to offer.  Since its inception, the event’s success has been incumbent on the strength of our sailing families- the vast number of volunteers that make it all happen.  Please consider involvement in this year’s event and advise of your availability to serve!  We are particularly soliciting assistance for the opti launch and recovery team.  This elite force is charged with the responsibility of orchestrating the ballet on the docks involving approximately 175 opti sailors across the three floating docks.   Launch and Recovery team members will garnish a special colored Boomerang shirt and earn the respect of all. 

At this time we also want to encourage all sailors to sign up for the event itself.  As host, a strong LYC program showing is important, so please register on line if you have not already done so.

Finally, we are soliciting items for our auction during the event.  The auction is an eagerly anticipated part of the fun on the Saturday evening of the event, and it is a critical element of the financial success of the event.  Please consider donations of items;  the deadline for items to be received at the sailing center office is the Tuesday prior to Boomerang weekend.

Thank you and please contact Roger Welker if you have any questions and to volunteer and donate items.
