Before the practice race - which is all we had since the wind was so light.

There is light air and then there is no wind at all. Mostly we had no wind at all. The race committee tirelessly stood by to see if the wind would pick up. Thank you, race committee! Finally we had a few waves of light breezes and we had one practice race in the middle of the afternoon. By that time we were all grateful to get out on the lake and then go back to the great socializing, food and drink.

For the practice race, finishes were not recorded but I think the unofficial winner might have been Logan on his Hobie Cat pedal board. Several tried that out and seemed to have a lot of fun with it. Truth be told - some days are just better for pedaling or paddling.

It was a good day for pedaling.

For the Butterflys - Paul 1st with Gary 2nd. 

It seems October can be anything and is often windy. Let's hope we get into that trend soon as we have the State Fair regatta coming up on October 8th: State Fair NOR
