Sunday, 17 May 09, began as a sunny day with beautiful billowy clouds in the east over Crescent Lake. It was the day of the first annual Crescent City Yacht Club Regatta. Probably the first regatta ever on Crescent Lake. A historic event. There was a fine turnout of sailboats and people. A couple power boats showed up. The event got off to a great start albeit a little slow. The breeze picked up a little later. As the day went on there were a few showers hhere and there to cool off the officials sitting out there on their pontoon boat. Finally the wind stopped altogether giving every one a rest fron all that excitement ... then came the showers... then the rain storm. There was no dampening of the spirits of this yacht club ... they all retreated to the food and beverage tent to end the festivities on a high note. Be sure to attend some of your local events.
