Learn to Windsurf via Youtube!
May 30th, 2008Here’s a great beginner video that was found on Youtube from instructor Bruce. It shows Ellen Faller who was voted US windsurfer of the year in 2004. So pay attention to her instruction, as it doesn’t get much better than that from Ellen!

NOW Registration Night
March 7th, 2008
We had a successful first ever spring registration night for our windsurfing club at the Community Auditiorium this past week. Bruce, Surfy, Marg and myself were on hand to answer questions and promote the club for the coming season. A great thing with youth soccer being set up next to our windsurfing club booth, we had LOTS of traffic go by generating many good questions and giving us a chance to hype up the club to prospective future members. You could see the excitement in the kids eyes while watching the windsurfing videos we had playing. Great stuff!
If you happened to miss early registration night, no problem, we’ll be posting a registration form in the forum so you can easily mail in your 2008 dues if you like.
We’ll see you on the water (soon!).
