Halloween Regatta – Fontana, WI Oct 29-30, 2011





The Halloween Regatta, which is usually sailed in Lake Forest, was a fun weekend and full of wind. Sailors from all teams wore costumes, on the boat and off. With two separate fleets of 420s out on the race course, there was a total of 33 boats out on the water; 21 in the Invitational fleet and 12 in the Open fleet. In the Invitational fleet, the Loyola Gold team placed 6th overall. In A division, skipper RJ Porter and crews Colleen Croft and Colleen Kollar, placed 10th. Their B division boat, skipper Melinda Lee and crews Colleen Kollar and Conner Croft, placed 2nd. The Loyola Maroon team placed 14th overall. A boat, skipper Mitchell Lee and crew Jimmy Moriarty, placed 13th and their B boat, James Kinzel and Julianna Lee, placed 12th in their division. In the Open fleet, skipper James Kohn dominated the fleet by taking six 1st finishes. All of the other Loyola sailors did an outstanding job and everyone had a great time.
