The Lake Saint Louis Sailing Club is pleased to present the 2009 USA Junior Olympic Sailing Festival - Midwest, on July 17-19, 2009, in Lake Saint Louis, Missouri. We plan to race fleets of Sunfish (singles and doubles), Lasers (singles and doubles), Laser Radials and Optis. Junior Olympic Sailing Festival events mix Olympic-style competition with elements of learning and fun for all levels--from beginning racers to those with Olympic aspirations.

We invite junior sailors of all skill levels to come join us for a fun-filled weekend of sailing and camaraderie. We'll have Friday morning and afternoon sailing lessons for the new or novice sailors, as well as our very popular annual Pirate Party for all sailors on Friday afternoon starting at 4:00pm. Racing will take place on Saturday and Sunday. Sailors can choose to participate in the Friday lessons, the Pirate Party, the racing, or any combination of these activities. Spectators and participants will have full access to the beautiful Lake Saint Louis Community Association Clubhouse and beach, which provides for fabulous stadium-like views of the sailing. NOR and Registration are available on the event website. We would love to see a big turnout of junior sunfish sailors.
 
Registrations are starting to come in, and our fleets are growing, but we've got plenty of room for more Sunfish (singles or doubles), Laser and Opti junior sailors (ages 8-21). This regatta will certainly have some very good young sailors, but we'll have lots with limited racing experience, or even some that are just getting started. We'll have lessons and our fabulous Pirate Party on Friday, with racing over the weekend. Please visit the event website, or contact me for more information.

Fair winds and happy sailing,

Pearson Buell

My apologies, but our online registration form was turning folks away with a message that our registration was closed. We have corrected the problem, and will be accepting online registrations through Thursday, July 16. Sorry about any confusion this may have caused.
