Hi Mark, yes it does. We staff the shows with volunteers from the Hobie Cat Fleets. We have a Div 4 Handout that includes an application to join Fleet 95, a regatta schedule, which includes the Family Fun Events. Similar info is on the Div 4 webpage http://www.hobiedivision4.org/ By being at the shows we can answer any questions, and also assist the local dealer.

Probably the most sucessful efforts to build the Fleet and add racers has been Hobie 101 and 102 one day seminars held at Sail Sand Point. Laura Sullivan, 1st Vice Chair of NAHCA, and Div 4 Commodore, and Peter Nelson conduct this program. The programs are both classroom and on the water. The format uses parts of the Hobie University text used in the Guest Expert Program of NAHCA and the Rick White Seminars. See "Hobie Fleet Building" in the June-July-August issue of NAHCA News for more details.
