Announcing the Sarcoma Cup


JUNE 28 & 29, 2008

Announcing a Racing Event to Benefit Cancer Research, sponsored by BeatSarcoma, Inc. and hosted by Richmond Yacht Club.

* Peak wind season
* No conflicts with other major events
* hosted by one of the most active clubs on the bay

Come join us for some great racing for a great cause!

-----

When:
June 28 and 29, 2008 (Sat, Sun)

What:
A Sat/Sun combination round-the-buoys and distance race (scoring
available for either or both). Dinner will be available on Saturday
night. Special scoring or other arrangements are available (one OD
class is considering making this their Nationals).

Where:
Hosted by Richmond Yacht Club, racing will be mostly between
Southhampton Shoal and the Berkeley Circle for the buoy races.

Why:
Sarcoma affects all age groups and accounts for 15-20% of cancer in children. It receives under 1% of all cancer research funding and a better understanding is desperately needed. Money raised through this event will go directly to research projects sponsored by BeatSarcoma, Inc. with absolutely no money diverted to overhead expenses of the BeatSarcoma non-profit.

Registration:
One or two day registration is available

Nat,
Are you anticipating a non-spinnaker division for the sunday distance race?

My pac cup boat isn't going to do any in the bay racing so I'm going to take my boat out for it.

Thanks,
Edward
