Help Us Sail For The Cure on August 5.

CITY ISLAND YACHT CLUB is proud to host the only Leukemia Cup Regatta in the New York metropolitan area. Proceeds benefit the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. Please join us where you can raise more than a sail to fight leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma.

It's not all about winning. You'll be helping to save lives and find cures for these horrible diseases -- the leading cause of disease-related death among children under 15. This site feautures race information as well as useful information on how you can help this important cause.
