News
Another amazing trip went out this weekend to the Superior Hiking Trail (SHT). The participants got to hang out with Daniel's parents and dog before heading on the trail! They played some games, had a few rap battles, explored some caves, and had an overall great time!
Last weekend, 17 Hoofers went on a canoe trip to the Sylvania Wilderness. They paddled 12.5 miles, traversed 7 lakes, and bested 7 portages. Not even a rainy Sunday could stop them from enjoying a weekend full of fall colors!
The Annual HMC Welcome Weekend returned once again for 2024! Even though the weather did its best to hinder the trip, the club persevered and had an excellent time climbing at the lake. Many returning as well as new members enjoy the Railroad Amphitheater and Birthday crags. On top of climbing, those who went early Friday were able to enjoy a classic camping experience with swimming and cooking s'mores over the fire. The trip was topped off with a brat cook-out at Brittingham Park on Sunday once back in Madison.
No Sailing Experience Required!
This year's Commodore's Cup is a 6-day activity taking place during the last full week of August and culminates with a formal ball at the end. This event celebrates both the sailing and social aspects of the club and stems from delightfully wacky traditions formed during the typical doldrums due to lack of wind we experience in July.
A special winter seminar is being held on March 6th at 6:30 in the festival room. Members and racers from the MYC will be there for a meet-and-greet.
Agenda:
- Why race sailboats
- History of E Scows
- Why race and E Scow – A Love Letter
- Spinnaker work
- Mendota Yacht Club
- Racing terms and what to expect.
- Tips for crew
- How to get involved
