Mill Neck Family 5th Annual Sail The Sound For Deafness Classics Regatta Benefiting The Mill Neck Family of Organizations 2016 Fundraiser at Oyster Bay Marine Center in Oyster Bay, Nassau County, Long Island, New York.
Join us on Thursday, August 18, 2016, for our "Sail the Sound for Deafness" Regatta to benefit the Mill Neck Family of Organizations, serving people who are deaf and/or have other communication needs, locally, nationally and around the world.
Oakcliff Sailing is making their fleet available for a fun and elegant race around Oyster Bay and into the Sound. The Regatta is expected to draw sailing enthusiasts from across the area.
Sailors are welcome to participate with their own classic yachts, as well. Spectators are invited to watch from The Water Front Center's showpiece Cristeen, the oldest oyster sloop in North America. A gala soiree following the Regatta will take place at the Mill Neck Manor House, a spectacular Tudor Revival mansion. This Gold Coast treasure is a perfect site for an after-party of classic sailing yachtsmen and women.
