NewsCharity Regatta – July 25th The Annual Charity Regatta organized by the New Castle Sailing Club since 1987 to benefit the March of Dimes has been renamed the Frank Nelson Memorial Charity Regatta. Frank Nelson was a NCSC member who started the Charity Regatta and devoted much time and effort each year to make the Regatta a success. The March of Dimes has always been the benefactor. Their campaign is to prevent premature births and to promote healthy pregnancy and healthy birth; thereby, saving babies from death and disability. This year the event will be on Saturday, July 25th. The festivities start with racing (of course) with invitations for area yacht/sailing clubs to participate. The races will be followed by a BBQ dinner and awards ceremony. The March of Dimes has been asked to donate a perpetual trophy to honor Frank Nelson. Following the dinner there will be a live auction. All proceeds will be donated to the March of Dimes and it is important to have support from the Club. Even if you don't race, join other club members for a fantastic summer BBQ and bring your purse/wallet for a lively auction. To make this event a success volunteers are needed for registration, dinner preparations, and donating items for the auction. If you would like to volunteer in any way please contact, Kathy Leef, Chris Poulouin, or Tom Bayliss. The more, the merrier....
