Invitations for the 16th annual Long Beach Invitational Regatta will be in
the mail soon. The date is March 13, 1999. If you haven=92t been to this
event before, It is a day that centers more on fun than serious
competition. The events are based on events form other Sea Scout
competitions and from requirements and basic knowledge learned through
ordinary. But then, some is just off the wall.
For example, does your crew know how to drill? What if they can=92t see
where they are going? For that matter, how about team pulling blindfolded.
What would happen to your Scuttlebutt time if you had to fill the barrel
first? Will your general knowledge or seamanship, and scouting survive a
game of Jeopardy?
These are things we=92ve done in the past and are not necessarily on this
year=92s schedule. The events are not released ahead of time. Just bring =
a good sense of humor and be prepared to have a good time. Lunch is provided.
If you have been to this event before and your mailing address has changed,
please let me know. If you have not been here or know a Ship that hasn=92t
and would like to participate, please send me the Ship name= , contact
name, mailing address and phone number.
Let=92s make this the best-attended regatta ever.
