The fourth annual CLSA open house and boat show was held May 17, 2008. This event was organized and hosted by Rear Commodore Bill Vokac. As you can see from the pictures to the right and below, it was a stunningly beautiful day. There was a large turnout of families wanting to learn more about sailing and the Clinton Lake Sailing Association. They were treated to a beautiful display of classic sailboats. Many also went for a sail with one of several CLSA members who were offering rides on their boats, including Bob Miller, Gerry Christman, Joe & Linda Budden, and Ben Williams & Debby Aronson.
Photographs were contributed by CLSA Commodore Frank Scotello and CLSA member Debby Aronson.
