May 15, 2021 Scablands Fun Sail

ATTENTION THIS EVENT HAS BEEN MOVED TO JUNE! EXACT DATE TBA.

SPONSORED BY INLAND NORTHWEST SAILORS

For Sailors and Kite fliers

  

Due to the Desert Regatta being cancelled again we have set up a new annual event called the Scablands Fun Sail. The plan is to simply have a beach party, fly kites, and go for a sail around the Islands on June TBA. If the water is warm enough, swim.

We will camp on the Northeast Shoreline of the reservoir, some will start to camp on June TBA and stay until the TBA. Our official event will be on May TBA.

The Reservoir has some nice launches around the lake with one private and one state run campgrounds. Covid restrictions are enforced at the state park and private campgrounds. We will be camping in the open primitive camping area where covid restrictions are less stringent. There are public restrooms where we will be camping but we are not sure they will be open so we suggest you bring your own portable toilets. And make sure you bring your own drinking water and food, etc.

GOOD NEWS! If you have never sailed or flown a kite at the Potholes Reservoir your in for a treat as the wind seems to almost always be spectacular and the water great. Great place to kayak as well.

Also in the area is the big Moses Lake Sand Dunes just north of us.
