Sporing Bay Races

SPRING BAY RACE AND FUN BEACH DAY!

( And don’t forget about ROCK SHOW after at the hall).

The weather is looking great - sunny with a bit of cloud. The winds and the tides are also looking favourable for the Lasqueti Yacht Club - Kayak and Paddle Board races on Saturday,  July 20th.  This could be, ( once again ) the perfect beach day.

SATURDAY, JULY 20Th. 

Registration starts at 1:30 

Kids Events start at 2:00.  Entry Fee $2.00 for all kids. The kids events will be run by Anneliese and are all about inclusion and fun. Every participant will receive a Frozen Treat at the end of the event.

.Adult events start between 3:00- 4:00 or right after the kids events end.  Entry fee $2.00 for Club Members and $3.00 for non members.

Darwin and Doug will be serving up Hot Dogs and Polish Sausages starting at 2:00. 

Please bring your own liquid refreshments.

There are 4 adult races ( a bit more competitive but still lots of fun for all to join in ).

1.  Paddle Board Sprint Race

2.  Kayak Relay Race - a team of 2 paddlers using one kayak switching on the beach at the halfway mark.

3.  Paddle Board Distance Race  (not too far though)

4.  And what has become the premier race, the Single Distance Kayak Race.

These are great and fun events for everyone to participate in.  Also all spectators appreciated.   Come out and watch the kids having fun and maybe watching your family or friends go for an unexpected dunk.  I like to call it “fun and mayhem on the beach”.

This year we will again have the Lasers in the bay for members and non-members to try out during the event. Just check  in with our Fleet Captain - Peter Steenbergen.

For anyone interested in more information about the Club, our membership coordinators will be on hand to sign up new members and collect dues from returning members.

Memberships are: 

$30.00 per adult dependent children included.

Use of the Club Lasers is included with Club membership.

We will have a limited number of extra kayaks, paddle boards and PFD’s available for any one who wants to get involved.  If you have your own please bring them.

If you have extras that you will not be using it would be great if you could bring them to loan out as well.

Remember all participants must wear a PFf.

Anyone wishing to lend a hand for this event, please call Richard Chesham 333-8555

We can always use extra hands.
