You ought to check out their site and consider participation yourself. Typically, the Carlisle Classic supports their Access Dingy Program, which is a very worthy cause.

There will be something 50-100 kids running around. It's pretty cool and the Saturday night dinner is always very good.

I'll ask around this weekend, but doubt any decisions have been made yet.

Andrew, there has been a forum thread:

http://www.catsailor.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=194933&page=1

There is an NOR in the NOR forum:

http://www.catsailor.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=181852#Post181852

And I've sent SPAM to every sailor I have an email for.

Now the week before the event I get the impression that this event has caught everyone by surprise. Guys, I'm completely at a loss here. If I provide the information too early you either ignore it or forget it. If I provide it too late you know what you say.

Also if you have questions about the event my contact information is on the USSailing website and I'm happy to talk to anyone at length about a championship that I consider one of the finest in the nation, yes that is only my opinion and I'm not looking for a sh!t fight.

Also, it may be time for change in the Area Rep slot. I'll admit this task does take it out of you a little bit and my enthusiasm without a doubt is beginning to fade.

Regards,

David Ingram

USSailing Championship for the Hobie Alter Cup Area D Rep

David: You've done a great job and at some point I think you just have to stop worrying. Those of us that race will be there. The others. . .

I'd rather sail with three people who care about Alter Cup than 100 who don't. And frankly, I'd probably go to an exclusive, racers only website; citing your frustrations.

Area D south (and the Cup) are the highlight of my sports year. As long as it's held and I have a pulse I'll be there.

See you on the beach Friday?

There has been a lot of progress on this front, and NOTHING is offical until the USSailings Board of Directors meeting. Once ink has been put to paper you all will be happily notified.

You were warned and you did it anyway, there will be no sympathy provided today.

They've been in the freezer for years, so I doubt they'd hurt much even with your boots!

But the Wave hijack does have me thinking... Two toddlers and dad should be able to handle that, right?

Depends on how well behaved the DAD can be. Can he sit still? does he follow directions?
