2022 NATIONALS REPORT
After a two year break the Osoyoos club re-introduced their late summer regatta. The weather was near perfect with a variety of wind conditions and 13 races overall. The Osoyoos club were great hosts as usual, providing us with bag lunches everyday, pizza supper on Saturday and breakfast coffee and muffins. Thanks to all the club members who helped host this event and special thanks to John Cowan and Howard Carney for their efforts. Howard didn't waste any time getting us on the water when the winds were blowing and John was diligent in getting everything done right and on time.
