Hudson resident and long-time local sailor Jane Ebeling will be the regatta chair. "I'm very excited about helping bring this exciting event to the St. Croix river Valley," said Ebeling. "We'll be working hard to give the kids a first-class event plus ensure that our local community can enjoy regatta excitement with shoreside participation as well as on-the-water spectating. |
