Swap Reminder - May 8, 10-2, Dodge Park #4 State Park on Cass Lake

Just a reminder, we are having the swap this year. Due to DNR requirements for COVID, we will not have a "hot lunch" this time, but will have have some snacks and water bottles, perhaps hot water for instant coffee, tea, or chocolate.  If you want more, please BYO.There has been a good amount of interest this year.

Instructor info and new book for all windsurfers

The web site is worth a look. It is supported by many pros and others to help promote the sport. It is geared towards getting more instructors out there, but there is a lot of related info as well. It appears to be better supported than US Sailing was (they are also backing this program and forgoing theirs). They are offering a gratis Level 1 rating…
