2013 BYSC Lowcountry Regatta Party

  Saturday, June 22

                Beaufort Yacht and Sailing Club is pleased to announce the participation of ‘Pusser’s Rum’ as a sponsor of the 47th Annual Lowcountry Regatta in Beaufort, South Carolina June 21-23rd. As their key contribution to the event, ‘Pusser’s Rum’ will sponsor a “Pusser’s Painkiller” Party on Saturday evening in conjunction with the traditional ‘Lowcountry Boil’ dinner and the eclectic musical offerings of ‘Ocean Drive Party Band’. “Rum and the sea are inseparable, and no rum is more akin to the sea and the sailor than Pusser’s Rum – The original Navy Rum. For more than 300 years, from the earliest days of wooden ships and iron men, sailors of Great Britain’s Royal Navy were issued a daily ration – or “tot” – of rum by the ship’s “purser” (corrupted by the sailors to Pusser’s). Today’s ‘Pusser’s Rum’ – known as the “single malt of rum” – is still produced in exact accordance with the Admiralty’s specifications for rum”.

    And the signature ‘Pusser’s Rum’ cocktail is, without a doubt, the infamous ‘Pusser’s Painkiller’. This delicious concoction “had its start at the six-seat Soggy Dollar Bar on a long stretch of white sand beach at White Bay on the island of Jost Van Dyke in the British Virgin Islands. There’s no dock, so the usual way in is to swim. Of course, your dollars get wet – hence the name: Soggy Dollar Bar”.
BYSC, invites you to join us for the Lowcountry Regatta – a weekend of terrific sailing and tremendous social events beginning with the Commodore’s Welcome Party on Friday evening and concluding with the awards ceremony on Sunday afternoon – in between there are delicious continental breakfasts, fresh grilled hamburger and hotdog lunches, the beautiful scenery and breathtaking sunsets viewed from the BYSC grounds, the always popular ‘Lowcountry Boil’ dinner of succulent local shrimp, sausage and the freshest local corn on the cob imaginable, dancing and ‘chillin’ with Ocean Drive Party Band, and new for this year, the ‘Pusser’s Painkiller’ Party.

2013 Campers….. This year we have decided to let you design our
2013 BYSC Summer Camp t-shirts. We need an awesome design for
the back. We already have the logo on the front of the t-shirt so it
does not need to be on the back.
If you win your design you will not only be featured on the back of our
2013 Summer camp t-shirts but your parents will receive 50% off of 1
week of camp!!
Milledge and I will be choosing the winner. All designs must be copied
and emailed to eliseyarrison@hotmail.com or handed into the office
by Monday March 18th. We will inform the winner on Thursday, March
21st.
Thank you and we are excited to see your amazing designs.
