Louisiana | I will be in Shreveport, LA (Barksdale Air Force Base) for about a month or so and was wondering if anyone does any sailing in the area?
Thanks

Lakewood, Colorado | Hitch up that 18, and come on down to Panama City Florida for the Mid Winters East. Things are shaping up for a fleet of 18's at that event. With a boat from Colorado, a Boat ftom Texas, a couple from Florida, and a couple from Tennessee it should be an interesting weekend. The more the merrier. How about you Jerome? you gonna be there on your 16 again this year ?

Louisiana | I was actually planning on going to Mid winters, But I will be on Military orders during that time and might be stuck at Barskdale.
Unless..... I can hook up with someone who needs a crew and is driving through that area. Then I might be able to work something out.
Either way....I will contact shreveport yacht club and see whats going on.

Buzzard Island | This year the Shreveport Yacht Club's annual Holiday in Dixie Regatta will have a dedicated course for multihulls. Like my buddy Jerome said, the new Commodore, Tom Hadel, is a Nacra sailor, and he wants to bring the cats back to the SYC. We've got very nice, grassy grounds for camping, a fancy clubhouse and bar, an amazing chef from New Orleans, and our margaritas are legendary! As per usual for the last few years, we'll have a band and kegs on Saturday night. The Shreveport-Bossier area is home to 4 riverboat casinos, and some killer restaurants. If you like big air, the weekend of the HID is more often than not held in a fresh northwest breeze, so bring your wetsuits! I've just done a total rewrite of the SYC website, so it's still kind of spartan, but I will have more info up there in the next couple of days: Shreveport Yacht ClubTom Hadel, Commodore thomashadel@bellsouth.netBill Sniffen, Chairman, Regatta Committee nbsniffen@bellsouth.netGary Montcalm, Web Ape, Newsletter Editor garym@shreve.net | | | Re: Any Sailing near Shreveport, LA?
