Description
Located on beatiful Lake Texoma, boardering Texas and Oklahoma, The Texoma Lakefest is one of the areas premier regattas.
Begun over a quarter century ago as the Easter Regatta, Lakefest was the first inland charity regatta in the United States. Today, it has grown to become one of the nation’s premiere sailing events and is still recognized as the largest inland charity regatta to benefit childrens charities in the U.S.
This year, Lakefest will feature two separate racecourses: one for the regatta buoy races (PHRF spinnaker, PHRF cruising, Viper 640, VX One Design, Melges 24, etc.) and one for the Flotilla. With a large number of PHRF boats expected, the handicap fleet will be divided into numerous divisions giving everyone from high octane racing sloops to "bimini & BBQ" cruisers ample and fair competition. Keelboats of all sizes, kinds and speeds are encouraged to participate.
Since its inception, Lakefest has raised more than $2 million in support of various children’s charities in North Texas. The Texoma Lakefest Foundation is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt not-for-profit corporation.
