Help Needed to Support MSU Sailing Team
The Lansing Sailing Club has agreed to support the MSU Sailing Team by providing race management for their annual Cedarfest Regatta on October 12-13. Twelve collegiate teams will square off in this regatta including our own MSU team.

We will need assistance on Saturday morning from 8 AM to Noon, Saturday afternoon from Noon to 5 PM and on Sunday from 8:30 AM to 1:30 PM and volunteers are welcome for any or all of the time slots.
