About the Book

Toledo Yacht Club and the Mills Race Committee are proud to present the 99th running of the Invitational Mills Trophy Race. We want to thank all the volunteers who contributed to the program book, and again thank our program support team, H.O.T. Printing and Graphic Services. Special thanks to Myron Shapiro and Brooke Genson for their support and contributions to this unique racing program.

About the Logo

In 2008, we introduced an annual Mills Trophy Race logo. This year’s logo was prepared by the fine folks at CXG, Columbus, Ohio. Mills Trophy Race skipper, Brett Langolf, is CEO of Content Experience Group and we thank him for coordinating the logo development. See their ad elsewhere in this book.

Eight Bells

Over the last 40 years, we have been fortunate to have a loyal base of sailing enthusiasts who support the Mills Trophy Race year after year. Sadly, last year we lost two Mills Masters and more recently TYC Past Commodore Ron Gabel, club historian and keeper of all the Mills trophies. Please see the Chairman’s letter for details.
