Hi Santa Cruz Laser sailors-
Nick would like to know about how many people are planning on going to this
fun regatta in Richmond on Oct. 13.  I plan on going.  Anyone else?  Feel
free to reply to Nick, or to me and I can let him know.
Thanks.
Laird

Had a meeting with the PRO and regatta chair today (cc'd), and all is in
order for the Short Course Champs on Oct 13, a week from this Sunday. We've
got 3 very experienced small boat/keel boat racers in the whalers backing
up the PRO on the water. The NOR is
here<http://richmondyc.org/Cal2/EventShow.asp?event_id=606025&event_batch=1&assn_id=13823>
.

The motivation for this event, other than fun, is to bring D24's six short
course fleets together for the first time. Hopefully this will get more
people to sail at weekend events. RYC has Laser racing every Sunday over
the winter, so Short Course is also a good way for sailors to test the
waters there for the first time. 2014 Laser Midwinters West will be at RYC
March 28-30 so these Sundays are a path for people to build up to their
first big Laser event. Short Course Champs is cheap, $15, and RYC has a
club dinner afterwards which we can use for apres-sail. Let me know if I
can do anything to help get your fleet members to this event.

Since we are not having online registration and instead signup will be at
RYC Sunday AM, do you have any feel for how many people in your fleets plan
on attending ?

Thanks,
Nick
