With Hurricane Irene just to the east, we had plenty of wind, especially Sunday morning. After dinner we took kayaks across the lake straight into the wind until we got in the lea of the north shore. There we explored around the islands that had become connected to the shore due to the dropping water level. The wind lightened up a bit for the trip back. Songs, stories, and s'mores put a cap on the evening.</p> <p> Thanks to all the adults who pitched in to help with kitchen duties and boat rigging and launching!</p> <li><a href="http://gallery.me.com/johnduc#100370">Jr. Weekend Pictures by Barry Leven & John Duckworth</a></li> <img src="LaserLook.jpg" width="250" height="175" hspace="6" alt="Laser Look" title="Laser Look" border="0" > <img src="Kayaks.jpg" width="250" height="175" hspace="6" alt="Kayaks" title="Kayaks" border="0" > <img src="SunfishHike.jpg" width="250" height="175" hspace="6" alt="Sunfish Hike" title="Sunfish Hike" border="0" > <h2 style="font-size:48px; color:LawnGreen; text-align:center">Second Junior Weekend</h2> <h2 style="font-size:24px; color:LightCoral; text-align:center">Saturday, July 30 - Sunday, July 31</h2> <p> &nbsp On our recent Junior weekend, we had 13 kids from 7-17 and 15 adults from 35 - ?!!</p><p> &nbsp Winds were light and variable, but heavy enough to sail. We worked on tacking on command as well as capsizing on command. We did some racing drills as well. I believe we all saw improvement over the weekend. At one point we had 7 lasers out racing and 4 sunfish.</p><p> &nbsp Of course sailing is only part of a BYC junior weekend.</p><p> &nbsp Following dinner that was prepared by Tom Sherer and Bev Copfer we headed off to Sports World for a competitive evening of Go-Cart racing. As always it was a blast (even though my hat blew off and was destroyed by the end of the race!).</p><p> &nbsp Sunday morning started out with kayak racing where 3 kids were on one person kayaks. A very funny site with only one boat finishing. Then we had a paddle race. No Kayak, just a paddle. And in the end, the adults raced and were eaten alive by the sharks in the water that managed to capsize the adults. Actually, during the kayaking events there was a serious lesson on kaying rescue where most of the kids and adults got to watch a "T" rescue performed.</p><p> &nbsp We had a great team of fun parents that pulled off a great weekend. This included everyone helping with meals, launching boats, helping to rig and getting everything put away. I believe we all had a great weekend.</p><p> &nbsp Our next junior weekend is August 27-28 2011. Don't miss it.</p> <p> &nbsp Here's a link to pictures taken by Heather Davis. <li><a href="https://skydrive.live.com/?cid=814e378153a66f95&sc=photos&Bsrc=Photomail&Bpub=SDX.Photos&id=814E378153A66F95%21130&sff=1">Jr. Weekend Pictures</a> </li> <h2 style="font-size:48px; color:DarkBlue; text-align:center">Junior Bay Week</h2> <h2 style="font-size:24px; color:DarkSeaGreen; text-align:center">Sunday, July 17 - Thursday July 21</h2> <p> Here are links to the Thistle and Laser Radial results.</p> <li><a href="http://i-lya.org/media/pdf/2011%20Jr%20Bay/2011JrBayWeekThistle.pdf">Thistle Results</a> </li> <li><a href="http://i-lya.org/media/pdf/2011%20Jr%20Bay/2011ILYAJrBayWeekLaserRadial.pdf">Laser Radial Results</a> </li> <h2 style="font-size:48px; color:crimson; text-align:center">First Junior Weekend</h2> <h2 style="font-size:24px; color:#ff8c00; text-align:center">Saturday, May 21 - Sunday, May 22</h2> <img src="AllStart.jpg" width="175" height="250" hspace="6" alt="AllStart" title="All Start" border="0" > <img src="Sarah&Kelly.jpg" width="250" height="175" hspace="6" alt="Sarah&Kelly" title="Sarah & Kelly" border="0" <p>by Conor Ruppin</p><p> &nbsp The first Junior Weekend was a success! We had just enough Sunfish and Lasers out there to keep it interesting, (pals 1 Thistle) and an interesting breeze to say the least! Of course the best breeze came up as it was time to come in for dinner and lunch! We were able to get a few short practice races in, which went a long way to shake some of the rust off from this winter.</p><p> &nbsp Saturday night, thanks to Tim Harrod, we spent two hours at the Kent State climbing wall, where Casey Ruppin earned the nickname  Spiderman , and all the juniors were out-climbed by Warren Duckworth and Ed Aberegg!</p><p> &nbsp Sunday we woke up to pancakes and a (not at all) competitive volleyball game and of course some sailing. Most were able to stay for the afternoon race and sail in some more  interesting breeze.</p><p> &nbsp Thanks to all of the parents for helping out. Special thanks to Barry Leven and John Duckworth who organized the weekend, Chris Ruppin for organizing the food, Tim Harrod for finding the wall, and Sarah Paisley for providing some coaching. Make sure to mark the next Junior Weekend, July 30-31, on your calendars; the more, the merrier! <li><a href="http://gallery.me.com/johnduc#100322">Jr. Weekend Pictures by John Duckworth</a></li> <img src="JrVolleyball.jpg" width="250" height="175" hspace="6" alt="JrVolleyball" title="Junior Volleyball" border="0" > <img src="3Class.jpg" width="250" height="175" hspace="6" alt="3Class" title="3 Class" border="0" > <img src="WallClimbers.jpg" width="250" height="175" hspace="6" alt="WallClimbers" title="Wall Climbers" border="0" > </p> </td></tr> <tr><td> <h2 style="font-size:48px; color:gold; text-align:center">2011 Junior Sail Camp</h2> <h2 style="font-size:24px; color:turquoise; text-align:center">July 7-10, 2011</h2><p> <p></p> <p>&nbsp The forms needed for Sail Camp are below. </p> <li><a href="SailCampLetter2011.pdf">Sail Camp Information Letter. </a></li> <li><a href="SailCampApplication2011.pdf">Sail Camp Application. </a></li> <li><a href="SailCampRelease.pdf">Sail Camp Release. </a></li> <li><a href="SailCampMedical2011.pdf">Sail Camp Medical Form. </a></li> </td></tr> <tr><td> <img src="SailCampGroup2010.jpg" width="500" height="350" hspace="6" alt="Sail Camp Group 2010" title="Sail Camp Group 2010" border="0" > </td></tr> <tr><td> <h2 style="font-size:24px; color:purple; text-align:center">Other Junior Business</h2> <li><a href="2011JuniorCalendarLink.htm">Go to Interactive Junior Calendar 2011.</a></li> <li><a href="JuniorCalendar2011.pdf">Go to Printable Junior Calendar 2011.</a></li> <li><a href="http://i-lya.org/pages/junior-sailing/calendar.php"> Go to I-LYA Junior Calendar </a></li> <li><a href="JuniorMeetingFeb2011 .htm">Go to Minutes for Feb. 2011 Meeting.</a></li> <li><a href="2011BerlinJuniorSailingOrgChart.pdf">Go to Junior Organization Chart.</a></li> <li><a href="junior2010.htm">Go to Junior Forum 2010.</a></li> </table> </div> </td> </tr></table> <div class="back_button"> <a href='javascript:history.go(-1)'> [ Back ] </a> </div> </td> </tr> </table> <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="moduletable"> <tr> <th valign="top"> Copyright &copy; Berlin Yacht Club 2011 Hosted by PowWeb </th> </tr> <tr> <td> <table cellpadding="6" border="0"><tr><td>Contact <a title="web support" href="mailto:berlinyachtclub@gmail.com" target="_self">Web Support</a>&nbsp;to report&nbsp;problems or offer suggestions regarding this website.</td></tr></table> </td> </tr> </table> </div> <p>&nbsp; </p> </div> <div class="story"> <p>&nbsp; </p> </div> <div class="story"></div> </div> <!--end content --> <div id="navBar"> <div id="search"> <form action="#"> <label></label> </form> </div> <div id="sectionLinks"> <ul> <li><a href="index.htm">Home</a></li> <li><a href="join.htm">Join Us</a></li> <li><a href="contacts.htm">Contacts</a></li> <li><a href="directions.htm">Directions</a></li> <li><a href="calendar.htm">Calendar </a></li> <li><a href="junior.htm">Juniors </a></li> <li><a href="bycimgs.htm">Images</a></li> <li><a href="RegattaArchives.htm">BYC Race Archives</a></li> <li><a href="http://bycsailing.blogspot.com/">BYC Blog</a></li> </ul> </div> <div class="relatedLinks"> <br> <h3>BYC Fleets</h3> <ul> <li><a href="bycsunfish.htm">Sunfish</a></li> <li><a href="byclaser.htm">Lasers</a></li> <li><a href="bycthistle.htm">Thistles</a></li> <li><a href="bychighlander.htm">Highlanders</a></li> <li><a href="bycscot.htm">Flying Scots </a></li> </ul> </div> <div class="relatedLinks"> <h3>Other Links</h3> <ul> <li><a href="http://weather.yahoo.com/forecast/USOH0698_f.html">Local Weather</a></li> <li><a href="http://ussailing.org/">U.
