Final preparations are being made for the 2009 Cat Caper. The NOR is posted on the club website (
www.birminghamsailingclub.org). We are attempting to bring this event back the stature of the late 1980's and early 1990's. We are keeping all the great racing Saturday and Sunday, but adding a ton of free food and an optional day of racing/sailing/cruising – participate as much as you like.
We are working very hard to ensure a good turnout and even expect a full fleet of A Class boats this year – in addition to F16, Open Spin and Open Non-spin. If this event is not on your list – you need to double check your calendar!!!
Some highlights of the weekend are:
1. Optional fun race(s) Friday afternoon (maybe a distance race up the lake)
2. Friday night Dinner and Welcome Party
3. Saturday Lunch by a legendary local BBQ establishment
4. Saturday dinner from City Hall Diner (everything is GOOD)
5. Saturday night music with a costume contest and kid's games/prizes – BRING THE WHOLE FAMILY; trick or treat at the regatta site
6. Sunday breakfast with lots of coffee
7. Sunday lunch from Subway to make the drive home a little easier
The Club is fully behind this event and wants to see it be a huge success. Come out and join the fun!!!
