This issue’s Photo of the Week comes from Roger – here’s what he wrote:

Hello John:

I’ve been cleaning dresser drawers for space and came across this 1979 LYRA t-shirt. This was my first LYRA Regatta. I remember the Freeman Cup Race was from Rochester NY to Kingston. I sailed with Timmy Pete on his CC29.
