Open to the Public!!!

Welcome to the SJRYC home for information relating to the 2010 Tri-State Regatta and the weekend festivities that will accompany it.

Note: If you want your boat name on the back of our T-Shirt, you must be registered by August 30th, 2010.

To put on a successful party of this size (and to generate the club's much needed revenue) we must rely on volunteers to assist in the planning and execution of the event. If you haven't already signed up to help, sign-up sheets are available in the lobby of the SJRYC this allowing you to choose your role and times.  Available volunteering opportunities include: Ticket Sales, Kitchen Prep, Merchandise, Beer Truck, Rhumbline Bar and more!

The SJRYC is proud to have many exciting events scheduled throughout the holiday weekend. Read through the Schedule of Events below and click the link for the event flyer for additional information:

Instead of the TGIF dinner that traditionally welcomes the weekend for our membership we will hold a special Volunteer Dinner.  This complimentary dinner is available to all of those members that are offering their time to ensure that the Tri-State Regatta Party goes smoothly and maximizes the club's profitability.

While our volunteers enjoy the meal, preparations will already be taking place in the kitchen for the meals that will follow on Saturday.  Of course our sailors will also be leaving Chicago on their way across the lake to join us at the SJRYC!

Saturday (09-04-10)

The fun begins early as we will open the bar at 7:00 with Bloody Mary, Screwdrivers & Mimosas available for our early arriving sailors and anyone who wishes to come down and watch the boats come in.

Also at 7am the club will begin serving its traditional breakfast that includes pancakes (with and without blueberries!), scrambled eggs, sausage, bacon, biscuits & Gravy and more!

Still Hungry? The club will have no shortage of dining options available to you as we will begin serving our "Cheeseburger in Paradise Lunch" at 11am.  For only $6 you can enjoy a burger with all the fixin's and potato chips.

The party really gets started at 5pm when Steve Foresman takes the stage to entertain us with a mixture of rock, folk, classic country, and rhythm & Blues.  Steve will play until 8pm and will be sure to have the crowd rockin'!  Click the link below to see the poster for Steve's performance.

The event's amazing, annual dinner starts at 6pm and will be served until 10pm.  This delicious meal includes your choice of Grilled Steak or Chicken ($18/$13) in addition to Sweet Corn, Caesar Salad, Fresh Local Fruit and more!

The Award Ceremony will be held at 7pm and is a great opportunity to cheer for your favorite yacht or find out how well you and your team sailed.

You'll know that the party is in full swing at 8pm when a band, new to the SJRYC, takes the stage.  We are proud to welcome Libido Funk Circus to our biggest party of the year and are extremely excited to hear what promises to be a great performance!  Don't forget that we will have two bars in service and a beer truck pouring your tapped favorites.  Be sure to invite your friends, family, neighbors & co-workers to the club to enjoy this exciting event with you!  Click the link below to see the poster for the Libido Funk Circus!

The club will be hosting a special Labor Day Party to complete the amazing weekend.  This "open to the public" event will be complete with an al fresco dinner and the Live Music of Jenna Mammina.  Jenna will take the stage at 4pm and always puts on a fantastic show!  Click the link below to view the poster for this special event!
