The Edmund Pillsbury Memorial Cup
|
In August 1952, Mr. and Mrs. John S. Pillsbury and family in memory of Edmund Pillsbury presented to the Inland Lake Yachting Association a trophy to be known as ìThe Edmund Pillsbury MemorialCupî to be awarded annually to the skipper of the yacht, irrespective of class, who makes the outstanding record in the annual Inland Lake Yachting Association Regatta.
With the permission of the Pillsbury family it was decided in 1965 to award this trophy in the future to the outstanding skipper at the annual regatta, selection to be made by an anonymous committee of Directors appointed by the Commodore. |
