Glimmerglass
2011 Race Package
|
|
September 17-18, 2011
The Glimmerglass Regatta is held every year in
mid-September. The Regatta draws sailors from New York
State as well as much of the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic.
The event is primarily attended by Thistles, Flying Scots,
and Buccaneers, though additional classes are always
welcome.
Numerous hotels are located nearby, but many sailors
choose to use our tent camping facilities for the weekend,
often bringing their families to enjoy the many options
for recreation in the Cooperstown area.
Most boats arrive Friday evening to register and unwind in
preparation for a full weekend of sailing, but ample time
is allowed Saturday morning for arrival and pre-race
chores. After racing on Saturday, guests enjoy a
substantial hors d’oeuvre table and a full dinner and
dessert. The day ends with socializing around the bonfire.
