This regatta will be proceeded with separate Junior District

Yacht Club Road.  An AYC sign will mark the intersection.  AYC is
located 1.2 miles ahead.  You will be greeted by a gate and a card
entry reader, however if you stick your grill under the gate, magic
will happen and the gate will open.

Camping on yacht club grounds is permitted, but no motor homes or
pets.  Four motels are located at Exit 120.  We suggest the Ramada
