Douglas Wins I-LYA Junior Traveler Series
Congratulations are in order for ECSC’s Cameron Douglas who finished his season well by finishing 1st in the I-LYA Junior Traveler Series! Out of a total of 51 entrants in the series, Cam scored a series low 10 points to take the win by four points. ECSC’s Reagan Lessick finished in 7th after ending in a tie for 6th. Complete series results available here. Cameron did not sail the last two events due to leaving for college, we wish him well!
Reagan attended the last two I-LYA events at Erie Yacht Club and Berlin Yacht Club, finishing 3rd and 5th respectively, and earning her first race win in series competition. There are still a few regattas the Juniors will be attending to continue to develop their sailing skills and represent ECSC across the Midwest.
If you have been to the club recently, you may have noticed that one of the buildings at the junior school area has been torn down. This was the oldest building on the property and was almost falling down from age. We have removed that building to make way for its replacement. The new structure should include a covered area for instructing the kids at sailing camp in the summer. We are hoping this will end the need to conduct any camp activities under the main shelter, and all the campers will be centralized around the junior area. Stay tuned for updates as they happen.
