Summer Series Week #4 – July 28, 2026

Greetings!

Right now our lawn and garden are saying thank you to Mother Nature for the lovely rainstorm this afternoon!  Tomorrow looks really nice, with sunny skies, highs in the 70s and NNW winds 10-15 mph.  Faith Akert is once again our race chairman on Kristin’s pontoon next door.  Don’t forget to check in with the committee boat when you get out onto the water.  Afterwards, we will meet at Main St. on Westnedge.

Summer Series Week #3 – July 21, 2026

HI fleet!

Tuesday is our 3rd week of the Summer racing series and yes, we do have a race committee!  Thank you Faith and Kristen for signing up! We are looking at strong NW winds, 16 to 20+ mph and temps in the mid 70S at race time.  The thunderstorms are supposed to blow through between the early morning hours, but there is still a chance of afternoon storms, so be aware of developing weather. 

After racing, come to Main St. on Westnedge for food and great company! However, for this week, there will be no results announced at Main Street Pub.  Many of us, including our Statistician, Andy Lenczycki, are going to a concert Tuesday evening. Tuesday’s results will be posted on the ALCA website Tuesday night, after Andy returns from concert, around 11 PM.

Have fun and be safe in those winds tomorrow!

Kathy Rubino – ALCA Secretary

UPDATE: Our Race Chair, Faith Akert has cancelled races due to High winds and 30 + gusts. Safety first.

Summer Series Week #2 – July 14, 2026

Greetings!

Hope you are all enjoying your summers – if you like hot weather, you are in for a great week!  Tuesday is set to be similar to the 1st week of summer series heat-wise, with a heat advisory forecasted for tomorrow, with high humidity and heat indexes up to 103 degrees F.  If you feel like you can’t handle these conditions, stay off the water and spend your evening in the shade or AC!  Winds are forecasted to be 8-10 mph out of the west, with sunny skies with Win Larsen as our Race Chair.  We will go to Main St. Pub on Westnedge – gotta love those $5 burger baskets! 

Unfortunately, we have no Race Chair (and pontoon) to run the races the two weeks after tomorrow – July 21 and July 28th. Unless someone steps up, there will be no racing.  Attached is the sign up sheet for RC, as well as a membership form and the ALCA SSI. If any of you want to run the races and have a pontoon lined up – please let me know and I will update the list. 

See you Tuesday!

Kathy Rubino – ALCA Secretary
