Bunny Hop 2025 – Community Sailing School

This past Saturday, April 19, CSS proudly hosted the Bunny Hop Regatta at Pontiac Yacht Club (PYC)! Twelve teams from the CSS program took to the water for 12 races in moderate breeze, with tricky shifts out of the northwest that kept sailors sharp and conditions exciting all day long.

👏 Thank You to Our Amazing Volunteers:

This event wouldn’t have been possible without the dedication and teamwork of our volunteers:
