2021 NCESA Venue Instructions TLYC
Hi everyone--We are so excited to host you all this week on beautiful Torch Lake! Below is
important information for arriving at TLYC as well as a few other general items.
Arrivals
Boats can be brought down the driveway into the parking lot upon arrival to be rigged. Vehicles
used to trailer boats can stay if needed for stepping the mast, otherwise, we ask that you move
your vehicles up to the parking area which is in the power cut across the road from the club.
This area will be marked with signs. We need as much space as we can get.
Parking During the Event
Only race committee and authorized vehicles will be allowed to come down the driveway to park
on race days. All competitors and spectators will need to park in the parking area in the power
cut across the road from the club. There will be a shuttle to take people from the power cut
down to the club, otherwise you can walk down.
Boat Storage
We will attempt to dry sail all boats, but it’s going to be tight. There will be a limited number of
lifts available first come, first served. In the event that several boats must be wet sailed, there is
a lot for trailer parking approximately ½ mile south of the yacht club. This lot will be marked.
This lot can also be used for trailer parking for powerboats. We appreciate your patience in
advance as we manage the limited space we have.
Dock Usage
Dock space is limited at TLYC. The main dock and dock on the north side of the club are
reserved for race committee. The “T” dock near the launch area is reserved for water taxi and
designated follow boats.
Food
If you purchased meals, check in with the kitchen personnel when you go through the line to eat.
Note that on Friday and Saturday lunch will be on the water. If you purchased lunches these
days, you will need to put together your own lunches--the club will have multiple lines with
sandwich items, chips, fruit, cookies, as well as bags for you to assemble and go. Please plan
accordingly. Additional meals can be purchased on site at the registration area.
Apparel
If you purchased apparel and chose “pick up at event” your items will be available near the
registration area. The online regatta store will be open during the event and for several days after
for you to purchase gear and have it sent directly to you.
Saturday Night Party
We have about 40 tickets left for the Saturday night party. These are available for purchase
online as well as on site at the registration area.
Club Policies
Please observe the club policies of no alcohol past the designated signs, as well as no dogs
