Howard Boston Memorial Race & Leukemia Cup

North Star has raised $43,500

North Star Sail Club is having a doubleheader event September 30th by piggybacking our popular Howard Boston Memorial, the traditional start of the Anchor Bay Fall Series, with our second annual Leukemia Cup fundraiser. Spurred by the loss of both Charles (Skip) Boston and former Race Chairman Barry Saad to this blood disease we are setting a 2007 goal of $40,000 (we raised nearly $30,000 last year).

Location: North Star Sail Club, 32041 South River Road, Harrison Twp., MI 48045

Sailing Area: Northern end of Lake St. Clair, Michigan - Anchor Bay

Eligibility: This regatta is open to all sailboats. This race is also the first of 4 race dates for the NSSC Anchor Bay Fall Series. If you wish to race and collect money for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society you must register and pay a $75 fee. Click here to download a donation registration form.
