BECKER CUP REGATTA
The Becker Cup Regatta is the last regatta of the main season, held on the Labor Day weekend. 
Standard DCYRA Notice of Race and Sailing Instructions apply.
The Becker Cub Regatta is named for Joe and Gerrie Becker, who together with Fred Steiding and others, ran the races in the late 1970s through 80's after Jim Wallace passed race committee duties on to them. (photos below).  Also included below is a photo of Fred and Gerrie's 26 ft. Lyman Cruiser, named 'INFALLIBLE', that served as the Committee Boat for many years.
