First Dog Day Series Held For Juniors
on Tuesday August 24, 2004 11:26AM
The Junior Program conducted the first of two Dog Days Series Sunday, August 22. The objective of Dog Days is to accomplish the goal of making sailing "more fun." While it is conducted in a "race" environment in which some racing fundamentals may be incidentally absorbed, the objective is to have a "Doggone Good Time". This event was for all FBYC Junior Sailors and included Dog Flag making, Dog Bone and Walk the Dog Race Courses, as well as a Pinata on shore. Winners were awarded trophy Dog Bowls full of candy We had excellent participation on the first day with numerous Optis and three 420s. A highlight of the day was the appearance of an unidentified canine Race Committee. A few highlights of the day are shown in the Pictures .
All Juniors should plan to attend the second race of the series, on Monday, September 6 with more surprises in store.
