1 MARK YOUR CALENDARS! July 2015 July 17 Sunset Friday July 18th Water Festival First Saturday July 21 Sunset Friday July 24th Last Day of Camp July 26th-Water Festival Last Day July 31st Final Friday t Beaufort Yacht & Sailing Club... It typically just doesn t get any busier at BYSC than the month of June. And it was no different this year! Congratulations to Sam Levin and the multitude of volunteers both on and off the water who made the 49 th Lowcountry Regatta a huge success. We had a good turnout of competitors spread out over three race courses from south of the McTeer bridge to the cut north of the club. And as is normal, we provided the competitors with excellent shore support during launching and retrieval of their boats, fun but challenging wind and tide conditions in which to race, a great party on Saturday with live entertainment, and plenty of delicious eats all weekend long. And, as is always the case, the hospitality of the BYSC membership throughout the weekend was second to none. My personal THANK YOU to everyone that contributed volunteers, sponsors, club staff, and race participants. But one regatta weekend does not in itself make for a full busy month what did fill the month was another great Steak Night, really strong turnouts on Sunset Fridays, both the BYSC Summer Camps and the Junior Sailing of Beaufort Learn-To-Sail programs each week, another session of the Marine Corps S.A.I.L.S. program, and lots of activity at the pool, the docks, the cooking pavilions and the tennis courts. Something for everyone. Speaking of BYSC Summer Camp big kudos to Dylan and his staff. Many participants and their family members have commented to me and other members of the Board how well organized, interesting, educational and FUN camp is this year. Well done! It is your club come enjoy it - Chuck

2 60th Annual Beaufort Water Festival This weekend is the first weekend of the 6oth annual Beaufort Water Festival. The BYSC will be jumping with folks loading up to get out on the river and enjoying the club. A few quick reminders and announcements: The BYSC Face dock will be for loading and unloading On Saturday and Sunday both weekends, please refrain from long term dockage or boat repairs in that area. The Boat Ramp is tide specific and at dead low tide, launching is typically not possible, please plan according to tide. They BYSC dock and Ramp is for BYSC Member boats only. Any guests must be accompanied by a BYSC member. This includes the pool, clubhouse and tennis courts. Guests not accompanied by a member will not be allowed to park or use the facility. BYSC will be staffed to ensure that we all have a safe fun water festival. If you have any questions please contact the office.

3 Hey YA LL Water Festival is upon us and we are looking forward to some good times in the next week. Please remember that these are our busiest weekends here at the club and lots folks are heading out to enjoy the river. Lets all remember that manners and boating courtesy are as important on the ramp and dock as they are on the river. Dock space is first come first serve and I will do my best to accommodate everyone that I can. Please don t leave engines up while docked. We are here to assist if you need anything just look for me or Mr. Chuck. Milledge Webb

4 Junior Sailing of Beaufort (JSB) would like to thank all parents, sailors and counselors for making the JSB 2015 sailing camp our most successful ever. We had 92 sailors combined enrolled in our Level 1, Level 2, Level 3, Level 4, Learn to Race and Race Team programs. A special thanks to our dedicated counselors including our program director, Nathan Akers, Race Team Coach Caroline Attwood, counselors Megan Potter, Sally Key, Drummond Koppernaes and Conner Akers, and assistant counselor Walter Gnann. Good luck to Caroline Attwood who will be pursuing an Olympic campaign sailing in the 49erFX, and Walter Gnann who qualified for and will be sailing in the Chubb US Junior Championships on Martha s Vineyard August 2-6. We would also like to thank the Beaufort Yacht and Sailing Club for their continuing generous support of the JSB sailing program without which JSB could not function. While JSB s summer sailing camp is certainly one of our bigger sailing programs, junior sailing does not end there. JSB has a traveling race team sailing Lasers, 420s, Optis, and now O Pen BICs at regattas all around the southeast region. BYSC runs a spring and fall series race with juniors sailing Lasers, 420s, Optis, O Pen BICs and Sunfish. The BYSC fall series starts this Labor Day weekend with racing usually on Sundays at 2:00 PM. JSB boats are available for charter use for all of JSB sponsored events which includes the spring and fall series. JSB also sponsors the Beaufort High School and Beaufort Academy High School sailing teams. High school sailing practice starts up again this fall with Coach Peter Gamble and regularly scheduled practices on Fridays after school. We currently allow junior sailors from 7th grade and up to practice with the high school teams. Last season our high school teams were very successful with BHS placing 2nd in our region and qualifying for and sailing in the district championships in St. Petersburg FL. We hope to do even better this year. High School sailing is both fun and competitive with 502 schools registered to compete and 5000+/- sailors participating. If you know you want to keep your sailors sailing but don t know how to make that happen contact us and we ll help point your sailor in the right direction. Sail Fast! The Junior Sailing of Beaufort Board of Directors
