Easter Seals Regatta

Registration is open for the 2013 National Bank Easter Seals Charity Regatta, hosted Saturday, July 13 by Royal Vancouver Yacht Club. The regatta supports Easter Seals House, which provides accommodation for families while their children receive medical care in Vancouver.

The regatta is a PHRF handicap race with flying sails and no flying sails divisions. This year’s event is pirate themed and boats will be judged on their costumes, decorations and crew spirit, with the return of the False Creek boat parade. Crews can also get their favourite pubs involved in the Pub Cup Challenge. Registration is $100 or requires a minimum $250 boat sponsorship; sponsorship levels also include $500, $1,000 and $1,500.
