Opti Clinic this Sunday

Hello fellow Madison Opti Parents:

We are pleased to announce details of this Sundays Opti Clinic hosted by ILYA"s and the Madison Opti Fleet.

Date: Sunday Aug. 29th
Location: Burrows Park
Time: 10:00am- 4:00pm
Cost: $20 per sailor
Boat Rental (if needed) $30

Lunch will be provided for the sailors and parents. Please contact Hope Simon if you would like to help with lunch arrangements.

Our two instructors are Andrew Fox from Lauderdale, FL. He was an Opti standout and has coached in FL and this year at Lake Geneva. His sailors this year were most successful. He has a winsome smile that will immediately place the sailors at ease. He competed at both Single and Doublehanded Collegiate Nationals as a freshman.

The second instructor is Brendon Boylan from Lake Calhoun, MN. He traveled to many national events as an Opti sailor and was appointed to one of the international teams while in Optis. Brendon competed in the Doublehanded Collegiate Nationals as a freshman representing UW. He spent the summer coaching on Calhoun. He has a quick wit and easy-going demeanor which makes him a favorite with the UW team and his young sailors.

Let's hope/pray for good weather and have a great time teaching the kids the love of sailing. Questions or comments? Please contact Greg Simon 849-4605
