Final call to be made 6pm Feb. 23 2012, due to weather.
It still looks like Mallets Bay, VT.

Because of the slow-moving weather system on the east-coast the next update has been postponed until 9:00 PM Eastern Time this evening.

Map
(near UW Green Bay)
From Hwy 43 North take Hwy 54/57 exit
Head North to Nicolet Drive East
Look for the sign that says "Curley Lambeau's Cottage"
I am told the launch is somewhat hard to see. There should be many iceboats there over the weekend sailing in the Northwest Regatta, so hopefully it will be pretty obvious. The plan is to have some kind of flag or marker to indicate where it is.

Lodging:
Regatta HQ
Comfort Suites
1951 Bond St.,
Green Bay, WI, US, 54303
Phone: (920) 499-7449

The Comfort Suites has a "sister hotel" nearby that has the same rate. If you need it, they can give you the phone-number when you call to register.

Deteriorating ice conditions forced abandonment of today's races and the regatta is done.
