SATURDAY, JUNE 17, 2017: PADDLE & GSL YACHT CLUB SAILFEST

Aloha Hui Members & Friends,

This weekend, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, June 16 - 18, 2017 is the Great Salt Lake Yacht Club's Annual Sailfest!!  The following link to their website provides details of the 2017 Sailfest: http://www.gslyc.org/

The Hui will be paddling on Saturday, June 17th, from 10 am to 2 pm.  Visitors should remember that there is an entry fee of $3 to the GSL Marina State Park.  The Hui will have a pot luck luncheon sometime after 12 Noon.  We are planning to have some Chili and Rice bowls but you are welcome to bring your favorite dish or dessert.  Expect the Marina to be a little busier than normal with Sailfest 2017 activities.

Regarding the dredging of the marina, Dave Shearer, Harbor Master, reports that there is still a lot of dredging to be done.  They are currently working on the mouth of the harbor in order to have it open and deep for Saturday and Sunday Sailfest activities.  They will begin to reassemble E and D docks but the docks may not be ready for use until mid July.  Also, earlier this past week the marina had wind gusts up to 90 mph and the marina was closed during that period.  Our canoes made it through the strong winds.

Please contact Ben Au at 801-721-7026 if you have any questions.
