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.

With a long winter and a wet start to the summer, the sailing season is finally here! Be sure to stop by the lake front to sail, be social, or hop on a lesson.

Scenic views, blue skies, and great times abounded on this 4-day trek in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains!

An adventurous, sun-seeking group of 11 Hoofers drove down to the southernmost tip of Florida for a week of canoeing through the Everglades National Park! We paddled two canoe trails: Hell's Bay, a winding path through dense mangroves slightly inland, and Clubhouse Beach, a shallow paddle in the Florida Bay along the coast. We saw dolphins, many cool birds, and a crocodile. We did morning yoga on the chickee, acquired a real coconut from a real coconut tree, observed exciting low-tide critters, and made lots of memories. We indeed got our fair share of sun, including the prettiest sunrises and sunsets. It was a very exciting trip and nobody got eaten by an alligator... that's what I would call a success!

We had our first pool certification class of the semester! New members, old members, members of the exec board all learned how to SCUBA in the pool at the Nic right on campus. The soon to be certified divers will be completing their open water certification this weekend in a lake Up North!
