Flying Scot NAC June 23-29

May 15th, 2012

The 2012 Flying Scot North American Championship Regatta (“NAC”) is being held in the Midwest, affording EYC sailors an opportunity to compete without having to travel very far.

The NAC will be hosted by the Carlyle Sailing Association at Lake Carlyle, IL on June 23-29. For more information, see http://www.csa-sailing.org/nacs/nacs2012.html.  You can save $40 by registering prior to May 20.

In conjunction with the NAC, Flying Scot Inc. is offering a significant discount, as much as $3000 per boat, on new Flying Scots equipped for racing.  Free delivery from Maryland to the NAC is included, but you don’t have to be an NAC competitor to buy a boat.  For more information contact EYC member Ryan Malmgren, who is coordinating a possible group purchase, at ryan@madsails.com.

Luke Sheets

May 14th, 2012

EYC member Luke Sheets went home to be with the Lord on Friday, May 11.

Luke and four friends from Oral Roberts University were on their way to an “Acquire the Fire” event when their plane went down in Kansas.  Please keep passenger Hannah Luce in your prayers as she has miraculously survived and is in serious but stable condition.

If you knew Luke, you liked him.  Words like…spiritual, godly, intelligent, kind, and humble only start to describe the kind of man he is.  He graduated from ORU on May 5 and was pursuing his love of flying.

Please remember his parents Craig and Debra and his brother Blake in your prayers.

Arrangements for his home going service are in process; we will send an update when plans are finalized.
