“Mad Dogs and Englishmen [and sailboat racers] go out in the mid day sun”, or words to that effect, and seventy (70), some meeting overlapping criteria, went out on a sizzling race course off Stingray Point both days this past weekend for a very good cause – the 14th Annual Southern Chesapeake Leukemia Cup Regatta.

As far as the eye can see will be an armada of kids geared and ready to give it their all June 26-27th …
