Atomic Cup Barbeque:
The Brandt's will be hosting the annual Atomic Cup barbeque at their house. The event will start around 6:30 pm after our race that day. It would be helpful if folks can bring a lawn chair that would be nice. However, they should have plenty.

Bill will not be at the testing session on Friday because of business conflicts. David will be there and Bill is asking all who would like to attend to please let David know so they can get a head count so preparations can be adequate. All racers, sponsors, big boat teams, family and friends are invited. The pool should be inviting so if folks have swim suits, bring em!
