ILYA YOUTH CHAMPS - MENDOTA - OFFERS DORM HOUSING - DEADLINE MAY 15TH |
| 
Reservations DUE The deadline is nearing for reservation for dorm stays for the late June regatta. Please contact us now for a lakeshore room.Thanks
to the UW-Madison Hoofers, the '08 ILYA Youth Champs will truly be a
collegiate experience. The Lakeshore Dorm system will house our
pre-registered sailors for the value price of $15. The immediate caveat
is a required 20 reservations registered with the University by May
15th. There will be a female and male chaperone in the dorm. The event
falls on one of many warm, inviting Madison weekends on the lake near
the Union. Boats and cars will be stored at the Hoofers site and near
the dorm. A short five-minute walk down the Lakeshore will bring the
competitors to the homebase Hoofers site near Memorial Union.
The Hoofers
are excited about this opportunity as it provides a practice run for
the 2010 Collegiate Nationals at UW-Madison where the nation's best
will meet. This is our first recent use of the University's dorm system
for housing.
