<div>Hey Vanguard Sailors - </div> <div> </div> <div>Have a blast this weekend at SkiSail! I'll be thinking of you all the way from Michigan. Keep me posted on who wins the party and who dons the yellow banana suit! </div> <div> </div> <div>See y'all soon enough,</div> <div>Jenny</div> <div><BR><BR><B><I>Avery Patton <avery_patton@yahoo.com></I></B> wrote:</div> <BLOCKQUOTE class=replbq style="PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #1010ff 2px solid">Ski/Sailors-<BR><BR>Ralph made a few changes to the NOR. Not sure what changed, but here's the new version (below). <BR><BR>Other things to note:<BR>- Entry fee is $220, which covers two lift tickets, the world famous Ralffle, and a general great time. <BR>- Registering Friday night at Pete and Peters is a good idea but I don't think it's vital, if you can't make it up until late. <BR>- It may flurry a little on Saturday, so bring warm clothes for the sailing (wetsuits with
spray gear should be fine).<BR>- If the weather's supposed to be bad one day, Ralph may be able to switch the order of sailing and skiing to avoid sailing in the snow (which I've done before there and was warmer than I've been on the bay!).<BR><BR>Let me know if you have any other questions. I think we have the trailers/rides/boats/crews mostly sorted out, so let me know right away if you're still looking! <BR><BR>Avery<BR>415-378-3912<BR><BR>----- Forwarded Message ----<BR>From: Ralph Silverman <RALPH@CACHRISCRAFT.COM><BR>To: Avery Patton <AVERY_PATTON@YAHOO.COM>; stacy@connerproperties.com<BR>Sent: Saturday, April 7, 2007 9:12:49 AM<BR>Subject: New SKiSail<BR><BR><BR><BR>The 2007 Ski/Sail National Championships <BR>will be held in Lake Tahoe April 13 - 15, 2007<BR>Competitors have been preparing for this one for a long, long time!<BR><BR>This is a three event challenge. <BR>You must qualify in the skiing race, the sailing regatta and the party to be scored in the event.
