Posted by admin on August 5, 2007 - 9:00am in

Bob King brought a team of youth sailors, Peter Murphy and Kyle Crandall, to compete in the first annual Buffalo Canoe Club Youth Invitational Lightning Regatta. 18 teams consisting of at least 2 juniors each completed eight races. The highlight of the regatta for the team was young Peter steering to a victory in the second race. Results, pictures, and a regatta report are posted on the Lightning Class website. The Canoe Club is hoping to build on their tremendous success next year by doubling the amount of participation. Special thanks to Larry MacDonald of North Sails for providing each competitor with a very nice sailing bag. Congratulations to Conner Godfry, TJ Wright, and Lauren Jones on finishing 1st, 2nd, and 3rd, and to all of the other competitors on an excellent event.
