The weather was nice and dry, and the overcast skies kept the sun out of our eyes. The wind was from the North at 15 mph which is as good as it gets around here. We had 10 ISAC contestants, and half a dozen onlookers, and couple of dogs, a great turn out for a dry Sunday over a three day weekend.

After the ISAC we threw a few from a sitting position which is a traditional Aleut exercise to prepare for hunting from kayaks. Lastly we threw a distant contest, but most of the group had wondered off by then so we elected not to measure the distance, and the results of that was that Emil Berikoff did the best.
