July 7th RACE REPORT

You can't always get what (wind) you waaaaant.....

Wind was scarce so we had just one race on July 7^th, the “Independence Day Trophy Race” (we are not daring enough to put all those sailboats out there on the holiday itself).  Josh Gray volunteered for the first time on the Committee Boat and was joined by Beth Auld, Bob Orben, Mimi Riffle and Trish Zachidny.  Tom Jennings and Lance Snider set up the race course, and Tom Jennings acted as Race Chairman.  Thanks everyone!

In the Laser class Jim Voelz finished ahead of Tom Jennings.  

In the International Class, Peggy Voelz finished first, followed by Jim Riffle/Arlene Truex second, John Auld/Bob Zachidny third, and Jack Gall/John Gall fourth.  Laura Garrett and Bianca and Lance Snider decided not to wait out the wind and bowed out on the hot afternoon. 

On an overall handicapped basis Jim Voelz and Tom Jennings finished first and second respectively, then the rest of field (the International Class) finished in the order mentioned in the previous paragraph.
