May 31 Hummmmmfest at COSA; Lake Hefner, Oklahoma City  (**Note- This event will not be included in the 2007 circuit scoring**)  COSA always puts on a great regatta for Hummfest.  Be ready to sail some super fast reaches, and even the infamous X course.  In the past there have been tons of Lasers at this event, and is always way worth the trip.  They'll run races, serve lunch, and have trophies!  All you have to do is show up ready to sail!  What a great way to get the summer started!

** May 17 - Singlehand shootout!  @ KSA (the new Kansas Sailing Association) ; Lawrence, KS  This one day event will be a great way to kick off the season.  The new facilities are on the West side of Clinton Lake.  Do a Google map search for Bloomington Beach-  it's right there.  This promises to be a great time, with Lasers and Finns coming out of the woodwork to come sail.  Lots of starts, lots of shorter races and some other fun stuff.  Also, Lawrence is only 5 miles from the lake, and makes for a great night of fun if you plan to travel back on Sunday.  RSVP to Tim Fitzgerald-  Timfitz@cox.net

** July 19-20 Whitecap (for the Robert F. Bennet Governor's cup)  NSA  Cheney Lake       www.ninnescah.org Cheney puts on an excellent annual Whitecap Regatta which they always do a great job with.  Many of you have been to Cheney for events in the past few years and know about this great facility.  It is one of the best sailing venues in the midwest, and there is enough beach space for you, and all of the sailors you bring with you to the event!  At this regatta, they will also have other sailboat fleets.  Of course we will have our own start!  The winner of the fleet with the most boats is awarded the Robert F. Bennet perpetual Governor's Cup, which was given to the sunfish fleet last year.  They got us by only ONE boat!  What a great reason to bring as many sailors with as you can and make this a great big event!
