Hey Everyone,
We would like to invite you to the 2017 Alumni Regatta and Barbecue! The event will be split into two parts, both of which will be held on Sunday, June 4th.
Part I: Racing
Alumni wishing to sail in the regatta will meet at the UCSC Boating Center Dock at 1200 where skipper and crew pairs will be established. CFJ's will be sailed and racing will take place outside the harbor. Registration for Part I is $20 per sailor, and includes BBQ dinner following the races.
Part II: Barbecue
After races finish, a BBQ will be held in the lower room of the Santa Cruz Yacht Club. Food will be available for $10 a plate, and beverages will be available for purchase from SCYC.
Please RSVP if you plan on attending either event.
Stay posted for more information as we get closer, and if you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask.
We hope to see you all there!
Best,
Gabrielle Lange

Our new boat has arrived and it is ready for the 2016-2017 regatta season. Thank you so much to all of our kind donors who helped us reach our goal! Also a huge thank you to the UCSC Crowdfunding department for helping facilitating the largest fundraising campaign the sailing team has ever done.
Hey y'all,
Thanks again for all the support that has helped us achieve a new boat! We have ordered the boat and it is on its way to UCSC this very moment. We will be sending out the team photos shortly, and will be able to get some shots of us shredding with the new boat. We're expecting delivery to be sometime in march which gives us plenty of time to practice for PCC's with it.
Thanks again,
The UC Santa Cruz Sailing Team
With 10 days left to go we are nearly at our goal!! We would like to thank all of our donors for making this possible and for helping us get a new boat. With our progress so far and 10 days still left in our campaign, we would like to set a stretch goal of $12,500. If we reach our stretch goal we can purchase a new race boat and a used boat to replace one of our old practice boats. We could not have done this without all of your donations and are excited to push towards this new goal. Here is a picture from a recent sunset practice.
Hello Everyone,
Thank you so much for your contributions, because of you we have already raised 85% of our goal. Donations from people like you keep us out on the water and keep us sailing fast and having fun. We are in the final push toward our goal so please share our page with anyone who is interested in supporting youth sailing. Once again, thank you so much for our donations and have a great December!
Sincerely,
The UCSC Sailing Team
