* There's a entry form, Notice of Race etc for the Nationals on line at


http://www.lbws.com.au/


We're looking to have 50+ in the fleet, so this will be the biggest
and hottest nationals for a while.



* We're looking for volunteers to assist with running the kid's
racing in the morning before the main fleet races; please drop me a
line at

cthom249@...

if you're interested. We would particularly like help from parents!



* NSW-based nationals sailors - we are also looking for helpers with
the registration etc. Please drop me a line at cthom249@...
and I can send you a jobs list so you can select one.

BTW, if no one comes forward we may have to conscript people because
a small group cannot be expected to run a whole regatta for you
without help!



* DAC is racing tonight. On Saturday, there is no normal club racing
but some of us will be training either at DAC or Botany Bay. Drop me
a line if you want to come along, the more the merrier. On Sunday,
DAC is racing at Kurnell (note that Deb and I are off at a festival
so will not be attending). Sunday is also the day for Narrabeen's six
hour marathon, which sounds like a fun event; contact Rog for details.


See you all on the water!

Chris
