# 1 Division Race Report
With La Nina having moved off we seem to be having a last flutter of Summer. Last Saturday was a good example.

NSW State Optimists Championships at MHYC
Last weekend, MHYC hosted the NSW State Optimist Championships. With glorious weather, not the strongest of wind, both the Green and Open Fleets were out in the Harbour. It was truly a wonderful sight to see so many boats, all 127 of them and this was just the Optis!

Barefoot Ball 2012
Another year of the Barefoot Ball has gone by. It was a fabulous night last Friday for MHYC's Annual Ball with the dance floor crowded while the Enormous Horns played and then continuing upstairs to DJ Paul. The Club looked great - decked out in a Beach theme with beach huts, deck chairs, surf backdrop along the Sandbar deck, and plenty of leis for all attendees. Everyone dressed up and looked the part whether in beachwear or formal. Photos will be added to the website gallery shortly - stay tuned!
