Toledo Windsurfing Championships
After a 20 year run from 1990 through
2009 it was decided not to hold the TABA ran event in
2010. Though we still were getting over 40 entries it
was pretty much the same small group of people organizing
and running the event for 20 years and all were a tired
with being tied down each spring with it. Good news
is there are still windsurf events in Michigan and Ohio.
Find out about them on the Mowind.org
web site.
Cattail Regatta
Starting in 2010 area windsurfers showed
up and raced in the local Jolly Roger Sailing Club /
Toledo Cattail regatta. It happens this event falls
on the same weekend as the TABA event always was (the
first weekend after the Memorial Day Holiday). The Cattail
Regatta is a one day Saturday event hosted and held
by the Jolly Roger Sailing Club. They are located on
the Ottawa River here in Toledo. The race itself happens
in Maumee Bay about 1.5 mile offshore where winds are
often very nice. Hope to see you there this Spring,
show up around 9 at the JRSC and register( low entrance
fee). First race around noonish, usually three long
races .. and back on shore by 3:30 for some great after
race food and drinks in the air conditioned club house.
