The Mayor's Cup Regatta is in the books!
It was an experience, running a sailing race when I just learned to sail last August. My experience is minuscule and my knowledge of the sport even less - but when the Lake Townsend Yacht Club asked if I would be the chairperson, I said yes.
Glad I did. It was great fun to meet so many sailors, from across North Carolina and reaching into Virginia. We had great weather - after a tempest Friday night that cancelled the fun sail, we had a brisk wind on Saturday and somewhat less on Sunday, under Carolina blue skies.
The photo is from the first day of racing, as competitors round a mark.
Now that the lake water has warmed and the sailboats are being rented, Jack and I will be out on the lake trying to move out of the pure novice category.

See you at the Marina!
