I am pleased to announce that Pettipaug Yacht Club will be part of the 2nd Annual Connecticut River Leukemia Cup Regatta on May 4 and 5, 2019. We will be joining our fellow sailors from Essex Corinthian Yacht Club, Essex Yacht Club and Frostbite Yacht Club to raise money for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. Racing will be over Saturday and Sunday with post race parties both days. We will be sailing off Essex in the Connecticut River, launching from both PYC and EYC/ECYC. How can you participate? There are several ways to join in and support LLS. 1. Register a boat and sail. We anticipate fleets in Ideal 18's, MC Scows, Lasers, JY-15's, 420's, Sunfishes, and Force 5's and there will be a handicap race for any boats that don't have enough to compete as a fleet.
