You might not think that the government shutdown could affect our sailing events, but it actually can, and it did.  The Grand Annual Regatta was scheduled to be held at Cave Run Lake, a Corps of Engineers lake in Daniel Boone National Park in Kentucky, the weekend of 10/6-10/7/2013.  However, due to The US government's partial shutdown the lake was closed!  Racing was cancelled, but not the party!  They still held a Not-a-Regatta Pig Roast in Lexington.  That's the spirit!
