Spring Bay Races- Lasqueti Yacht Club

Reminder: 
The Lasqueti Yacht Club

ANNUAL - SPRING BAY KAYAK AND PADDLE BOARD RACES - Sat. July 9th.

This year we will be offering FUN kids events starting at 1P.M. Registration starts at 12:30.

As this is our first year doing this it will be fluid.  Carly will figure out what works best for  ages and numbers.  THIS IS ALL ABOUT HAVING FUN!!!   Mr. Freezies for all participant.

We will have short kayaks for all of the kid events, as well as kick board for the swimming events.

4 ADULT RACES THIS YEAR:

Adult events will begin around 4 - after we wind up the kids events.  Registration for adults will begin from 12:30 onwards.

The Kayak Relay - 2 people using the same kayak and doing a switch on the beach.  Also - the “premier event” is a single person Double Loop Kayak Race.  The kayak races will have 2 categories - 10 feet and under kayak and over 10 feet.

The Paddle Board Race:  2 events - first is the long paddle board race (NEW) and the 2nd event is the Paddle Board Sprint.

We will try to have extra kayaks and boards available for anyone who wants to give it a try.  Anyone who has an extra kayak or paddle board could bring it along to lend out.  Any extra PFDs would helpful as well.

The kayak races and paddle board races will be alternated to enable a rest in between to make it possible for those wanting to participate in multiple races.  Anyone wanting to sign up for all 4 events will just have to go, go, go.  This could be a real grudge match between friends and a chance to show off your stamina.

We will have 4 of our new (to us) Lasers available on the beach for any competent sailers.  PDF”s must be worn and a waiver must be signed.  This event is offered to members and non-members alike, ( hopefully we may get some new memberships).

On that note Don Dempster will be at the event to sign up new members and to collect dues, cash or cheque.  E-transfer will work in advance at ddempsterd [at] gmail [dot] com and paper work can be dealt with at the event.

Membership is  $50.00 once again this year.

Registration Fees: 
Adult Club Members $2.00 non members $3.00 per event.
All kids registration $2.00 for the day. Members and non-members alike. 
All non-members will have to sign a waiver and a guardian will have to sign for the Kids.
