ROJO TROPHY

This cup was donated by Walker Johnson to honor Rod and Jodie Nystul who served as Commodore and Secretary / Treasurer from 1988 to 1999. During their joint management of the Club, it grew from an average of 4-8 boats sailing each Sunday to 14-18 boats each Sunday. They accomplished this with their enthusiasm for sailing and their willingness to help any and all newcomers to learn to race. Many current members attribute their membership to the “warm welcome” atmosphere created by the Nystuls. In addition, it was Rod and Skip Cartland who designed and implemented our unique Starting System that gives all sailors a chance to win. The RoJo cup race was started in 2000 and Rod was its first winner.
