social at SFYC on Saturday afternoon May 16. Please plan to enjoy
free beers and soft beverages with your fellow racers. If SFYC can be
reasonably assured of 60 hungry sailors across all Elite Keel fleets, there will
also be BBQ available for a small per person cost. The Knarr fleet
has apparently committed to supply 30 of these, let's see what we can do to add
to that number. If you're racing, please stick around
afterwards!</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

approaching Nationals, and it would be great to see double digit
participation. Get your entries in!</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

The honor roll is on the web site, and we are thinking about adding a List of
Shame to highlight the parasites and free riders among us, embarrassingly
including me right now, for 2009. I am sending a check to Dan Pruzan
today, if you haven't already please do so asap. Our endowment has been
crushed in the market of late, and the fleet depends on dues to
fund the costs of the newsletter, running the Nationals
regatta, season trophies, social get togethers, the perquisites of the
office of class pres., etc. </SPAN></FONT></DIV>
