The Tasars are coming!

The days are getting longer, the winds are getting warmer, and the CGRA team is getting very excited about the upcoming sailing season. We're pleased to again welcome top dinghy sailors from around the world to test their skills in the legendary winds of the Gorge. CGRA will host several major national and international competitions this year, culminating with the 2013 Tasar World Championship August 10-17. Other highlights include major events for 505, Laser, 29er, Opti, Fireball, and Moore 24 sailors, plus an expanded schedule of performance training clinics for both youth and adults.

Stay tuned for more information on these and other great events coming this summer to the most insanely great sailing venue on the planet, the Columbia River Gorge!

Either way, your purchase will help support CGRA's efforts to continue bringing world-class sailing opportunities to the Gorge.

Support world-class sailing in the Gorge

It takes a lot of work and a lot of money to continue to bring world-class sailing opportunities to the Gorge. Without the membership base of a traditional yacht club, we're dependent on the support of our friends to help cover the costs of boats, shore facilities, site improvements, coaching, instruction, and race management. Donations and sponsorships account for nearly a third of our budget; without them, we could not exist.
