That's a beauty (the event).

Both the Notice of Race and the registration form can be found on the web site.  Event organizer Nevin Sayre wants you to know the following:

"1/  Racing for
the Gold Fleet begins Aug 3 with final
check-in 1100-1200, Skipper's Meeting 1300, and first possible start
1330 per
the Notice of Race (www.vhyc.org).
 The Silver Fleet is welcome to
practice Aug 3, but their official racing is Aug 4 & 5 only.  Note
that at the US National Championships there are U19, U17, U15, and U13
age
groups.

2/ The Silver
Fleet for beginning racers is an important part
of this event.  It is a great opportunity for new windsurfers to improve
their skills quickly in a series of very short courses and to learn from
our
upcoming hot shots.  Several sailors have graduated from Silver to Gold
Fleet in the last couple of years. If you can get upwind, you are
qualified for the Silver Fleet.

3/  We have
limited housing in private homes on a first come,
first serve basis.  We can't promise to put up parents.  Additional
accommodations is listed on the NOR.  

4/  If you are
reserving a charter board ($75) please contact
me directly at nsayre@aol.com.
  The charter includes board, fin, straps,
and UJ.  Charter boards are available for purchase following the event.

5/  This event is
part of the U.S. Sailing Junior Olympic
series.

 Happy
windsurfing,

Nevin Sayre"
