Dear Fellow Star Sailors,

The Lake Sunapee Yacht Club and the Lake Sunapee Star Fleet are proud to host the 2022 Star Western Hemisphere Championship. As event chairs we cordially invite you to join us for a spectacular event with world renowned hospitality, and a location that cannot be beat.

It is our intention to provide housing to as many competitors as possible with our club members. We will give priortiy to those who register first, so it is important to sign up on the WHC website and email Brad Nichol with your housing request.

We expect to host at least five major social events with beverages sponsored by Bacardi. The event calendar is on the website. We are keepign costs low with an entry fee of $500/boat that covers all racing, continental breakfast, after sailing snacks, beverages and dinners. This is all possible because of the generosity of the club members, local businesses and our presenting sponsor Bacardi.

The 2022 summer schedule will be busy culminating in the 100th anniversay of the Star World Championship in Marblehead. We look to make attendance in Sunapee as easy as possible and will provide boat storage before and after the event, host a warm-up at the Lake Sunapee Open August 5-7 and  help with boat transportation.

Finally, we would like to promote U30 competitors at the event and are accepting applications for entry fee scholarships in memory of Andy Macdonald for skippers under the age of 30.  Please email Brad Nichol to apply.

We look forward to an excellent summer of sailing. Come join us on Lake Sunapee in August!

Sincerely,

John Chiarella & Brad Nichol
Event Co-chairs
