Hey Fellow Express Junkies -

Just emailing to remind ya'll to get signed up for the Sarcoma Cup Regatta

friends and RYC have been working overtime to make this a great event.  Two
bands, lots of food, beverages, entertainment.  A long list of trophies (see

We have just decided to dedicate this first Sarcoma Cup to Andrew, a 15
year-old local sailor who was diagnosed with sarcoma in November, 2007.
Barring a medical emergency we think Andrew will be in attendance...so, it
would be a HUGE boost for his morale to have a big turnout - especially as
he is just starting a new treatment. He is too weak to sail right now so we
can sail for him. You can read more about Andrew at

.htm 

So, if Andrew can make it out just for the rush of seeing some sailboats,
surely you can get your boat out there and actually go sailing for Andrew.
no excuses folks. great sailing. good cause. great fun.  What more can you
ask for?  Seriously, please help us make this a great event.. Let's show up
in huge numbers.

Be there!
