Hello Sailors and Families!
Thank you for registering for the Stone Horse Opti Regatta on Monday July 17th. We are very excited to be hosting such a great event, and we are looking forward to a wonderful day out on the water. Here are a few last minute reminders:
Sail Numbers: When you registered, you might not have known your sail number. Please make sure you have the correct sail number today and edit your registration before Monday morning.
Water, Snacks and Lunch: ALL SAILORS SHOULD BRING A REFILLABLE WATER BOTTLE TO THE REGATTA. At check-in sailors will be provided with snacks for his or her time on the water. When the sailors return to shore following racing, there will be a BBQ lunch provided for participants and their coaches. For everyone else, our snack bar will be open (cash only please).
Allergies: If your sailor has any food allergies, please send along food for them, as we cannot guarantee our food will be allergy free.
