Fall 2015

We had a great weekend at Hampton University for our first regatta of the season!

Some Fall updates:

- We are in the process of getting our own 420's! We have two on hold for us up in Buffalo and are waiting for the University to sort out paperwork so we can get them trailered down and ready to use

- Find us at the involvement fair this Wednesday 9/9 from 11:30 to 2:30! We'll have cookies and an awesome new banner

- After the involvement fair, keep tabs on your email for a general information meeting for new sailors in the upcoming week

June 2015 Update

The month of June was a good month for AU Sailing! We are in the process of buying two used 420's for the team that will be ready to sail this coming fall season if all goes well! They will be shipped from New York down to Annapolis and off to DC for us.

Other than that, a lot of fundraising is in the works.

If you have any sailing experience and are an incoming freshman or transfer student who is looking to join the team contact auclubsailing@gmail.com and we can answer any questions you have. Having our own boats comes the ability to create our own practice schedule and the possibility to have a strong team this fall.

Go Eagles!

Update on the 2014-2015 Season

We had a great fall season, sailing in Georgetown's FJ and 420 regattas.
As of this Spring, we are no longer using Georgetown's boats to practice with as we are looking to acquire our own boats to sail! This Spring was full of regattas at William and Mary and Christopher Newport as well as many fundraisers to raise money for boats.

Follow us on Facebook or at auclubsailing on Instagram!

Any donations for these new boats would be appreciated.
We also have burgee stickers for sale as well as t-shirts!

Regatta Recap! Fall '14

Our team had a great racing season this fall! We attended the Tom Curtis Regatta here in DC, the Jefferson Cup at Lake Anna, and the USNA Small Keelboat Invitational in Annapolis. See more on our Facebook page! 

First Week of Practice!

We had a great first week of practice! A big thank you to Georgetown Sailing for hosting us during their practices. We're also looking forward to racing in the Tom Curtis Regatta on October 11-12th! Keep up with us on Facebook here!

...And We're Back!

The AU Club Sailing Team is back after a brief hiatus! Email us at auclubsailing@gmail.com if you're interested in joining us this fall. We're in a rebuilding stage right now, but we hope to get back up and running as soon as we can. 

Stay tuned for more information!
