26 lightning teams
from across the Midwest came to the Wawasee Yacht Club to participate in the 67th annual Hoosier Regatta on beautiful Lake Wawasee. The race committee conducted 5 fantastic races over 2 days in light but steady breeze. From the welcome party and bonfire on Friday evening, through the chili lunch and awards on Sunday, all agreed it was another very special weekend!

The Hoosier Regatta
is known for its great racing, legendary hospitality, delicious food, and its family-friendly autumn atmosphere. Other traditions contribute to the fun, like the famous hot-buttered rum served after Saturday’s racing and, of course, “The Program”, an entertaining and lively raffle that follows Saturday night’s steak dinner.
