If you haven't done so, please really consider signing up for the Sarcoma Cup Regatta.
This is really going to be a special event. A lot of Beethovens and very talented friends as well as the folks at RYC have been working overtime to make this a great event. Two bands, lots of food (including free Peets coffee and free wine!), a free drink coupon for every single participant, beverages, entertainment. A long list of trophies... more than what your average regatta would offer, huh? And registration fees are not any higher.
Oh, yeah, there will also be racing in perfect sailing conditions and a very well run event. Fred Paxton's the conductor. So check it all out and get signed up ASAP at

We have just decided to dedicate this first Sarcoma Cup to Andrew, a 15 year-old local sailor who was diagnosed with sarcoma in November, 2007. Barring a medical emergency we think Andrew will be in attendance...so, it would be a HUGE boost for his morale to have a big turnout - especially as he is just starting a new treatment. He is too weak to sail right now so we can sail for him. You can read more about Andrew at http://stories.beatsarcoma.org
Andrew is taking a break from his flight for his life just for the rush of seeing some sailboats play. We need to be there for him. Great sailing… good cause… great fun. What more can you ask for?
Seriously, please help us make this a great event…. Let’s show up in huge numbers…
Be there!
