Wednesday Night JAM Races

The CSC fleet has now disbanded and stopped having the monthly covered dish dinner. However, the Wednesday night JAM races were started by long time Chickamauga Sailing Club (CSC) members and are still the most popular racing series in PYC. They will now be sponsored by the PYC Keel Boat Fleet. The Wednesday night rules will remain the same for 2011. See below for the link to the rules and the results.
