Stein Hospice Cup Charity Regatta Celebrating Fourth of July on Land and Water
Sandusky OH, Saturday July 4 - Stein Hospice celebrated the Fourth of July on land and water. At the Sandusky Sailing Club, about 25 boats set out Saturday morning for the Stein Hospice Cup/Sandusky Islands Race, but many sailors grew frustrated with the light winds and dropped out. Not Russ Krock, whose Schock & All crossed the finish line at 8:40 p.m. Krock, from the Sandusky Sailing Club, will represent Stein Hospice next year at the Hospice Regattas National Championship in Rochester, N.Y. Conditions were much more favorable on land. More than 200 men, women and children ran and walked in the Stein Hospice 5K Regatta Run, which began and ended at Shoreline Park in Sandusky.

2003 2003 Event - "A Regatta for Hospice" Bruce Roberts and his red boat were one of the many sailors unable to finish the rugged weather during the Sandusky Islands Race. His spirit and crew persevered and that red boat named Outlaw took both the Harry Boissoneault Memorial Trophy and Hospice Cup during the fourth annual Stein Hospice Cup Regatta.
Along with the pair of trophies, Roberts and his crew aboard Outlaw advance to the National Hospice Regatta Championship race next April in Annapolis, Md. "I think it's great to be able to represent the club and our local hospice," said Roberts, a Sandusky Sailing Club member. It's quite an honor. "It was a perfect sailing day. We knew we did pretty well, but the big question is how long is the race." "We have a lot of people in our agency who enjoy sailing and with great lake and bay sailing in our back yard this (race) seemed to be a good fit Stein Hospice executive director Jan Bucholz said.”
Roberts and his Outlaw crew, which included Brian Huntley, Fred Babson, Regan Cole, Kevin Bache, Bill Semans, Butch Lang and Jim Fischell, topped the Performance Handicap Racing Fleet with a corrected time of 2 hours, 22 minutes, 50 seconds. The corrected time was the top time in the PHRF A class, which earned Outlaw the Boissoneault Trophy, named in honor of the late Harry Boissoneault. Roberts and his crew nipped John Barker and his SSC crew aboard the T-10 entry Bear for first-to-finish honors and the Hospice Cup trophy. There were a total of 19 boats in the competition, with 13 boats in the Lake and six in the Care-Giver Class. The Lake Class was managed by the Sandusky Sailing Club while Harbor Bay Yacht Club ran the Caregiver competition.
Stein Hospice raised nearly $6,000 from last year's event and expected to match that amount in 2003. "Which is great because every single cent gets pumped back into the community," Bucholz said. "Plus, this is a lot of fun. "Any time you do fundraising, you're trying to do two things: Raise money for your mission and you're looking for exposure. Hospice is tough because we're dealing with the end of life and sometimes that doesn't get much attention, but our greatest support comes from people who have used our facility." All six boats in the Caregiver class were from HBYC, with Hubert Dauch taking top honors aboard Feelin Groovey with a time of 1:02.13. "We're really doing well for a fourth-year event," Bucholz said. "We really got ahead of what we were projected to have last year and it's stayed that way. "We have over 30 volunteers who donate day after day of their time setting this up and tearing it down. Our volunteers run this event."

2002 Event The first annual Community Celebration at Battery Park kicked off
the festivities in style. Outback Steakhouse donated over 300 meals
of chicken, steak, and all the trimmings. That FunknBluez Band kept
the audience moving throughout the evening. A legion of dedicated volunteers under the watchful eye of Hospitality Chair Kelly Bleile made the whole evening seem effortless. Saturday brought the regatta events. Starting with the Caregiver Class in a poker run, followed by the skippers meeting and the departure of the boats for the lake course. Again the weather was a gift. An eerie (or is that Erie) calm in the morning turned to a nice breeze out of the East. The racers on the lake course ended up sailing in a steady 12-knot breeze. Nineteen boats registered for the races; eighteen sailed in the two races; four on the poker run and the remaining fourteen were on the lake course. The race committee again provided a great course. The results
from all classes are listed below. The racers returned to a feast prepared by galley chief Chef Lynn
Nelson and her crew of Thank you at all the individuals who supported Stein Hospice through
this two-day event. We continue to provide service to the community
through the support of the community. Boissoneault Trophy presented Saturday at Stein Hospice Cup Harry Boissoneault was the epitome of a fine sailor: eager to learn
how to master wind and water, fiercely competitive but unwilling
to skirt the rules, gifted with an outgoing personality and a lively
wit. He was also devoted to his family, concerned about his friends
