The Leukemia Cup Regatta series is about more than boats and crews racing. It's about thousands of sailors who have elevated their competition to a whole new level - they race to save lives.
Participants in the Regatta raise funds for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society in honor of local patient honorees: the Honored Skipper and Honored Crew Member. These honorees provide inspiration and motivation, and represent the daily and lifelong challenges a that a blood cancer diagnosis brings.
The 2008 Regatta will take place September 12-14 on White Bear Lake.
