It was wind-filled day this past Sunday when the LOSC hosted its Club Championship. Nine brave competitors took to the water. Unfortunately, the wind became too strong by early afternoon, and many sailors were unable to compete. Two races were completed before whitecaps drove the remaining sailors to the shore.
Congratulations go to Rupert Holmes-Smith for defending his title. He was re-awarded the "Ice Welcomer" trophy. New member Howard Carney came in second.
Heart-felt thanks go to the volunteers who literally chilled themselves to the bone in order to assist the sailors both on and off the water. Without their assistance, events like this simply can not happen. Volunteers are the glue that holds this club together. Thank you!
After the boats were put away, Stan Storwick recounted the history of the club. It's quite the story! If you missed it, be sure to get Stan to tell you.
The 55th anniversary of the club was then fêted with cake and, of course, an amazing potluck meal.
