In the meantime, the Lombardi Optimist Trophy at the Fraglia Vela Malcesine has also begun, with the little Optimist athletes still in the water to gain experience and have fun all together.

Among the collateral activities the publication of the new "Diario di Bordo" of the Circolo, an alternative - from the more informative and journalistic cut - to the usual Photographic Book, which this year could not be done because of the problems related to Covid and the consequent delay in the beginning of the season: a little magazine with all the 2020 news of the Circolo, which this year has a new board of directors. The social initiatives were not lacking in this beginning of the mandate, which took concrete form with a day in which the friends of the day centre in via Gazzoletti di Arco - Anffas Trentino Onlus "Liberi di esserci" had the opportunity to go out by boat accompanied by Councillor Gianni Righetti, who made himself available so that the boys could live - after difficult months of loneliness and sacrifice - a carefree day, discovering the magic of the lake and its winds. Finally, on Saturday 15th August there will be the member's dinner, preceded of course by a moment dedicated to sailing: in fact, on Saturday afternoon the "Match race of the member" will take place with the awarding of the title of "Champion of the Club 2020" with crews of maximum 5 members, which will be matched by drawing lots.
