The Charity Cup Regatta is a time-honored Cleveland Yachting Club Tradition. Once again in 2024, we have chosen St. Jude as our partner. We raised nearly $100,000 in 2023 in our first year with St. Jude as a partner, and look forward to exceeding that number this year with our generous partners and friends.

St. Jude is a household name, with a personal tie to long-time CYC members, the Rollinson family. Fletcher Rollinson was diagnosed at age 11 with a rare form of brain cancer - pineal parenchymal tumor of intermediate differentiation, and his care was handled by St. Jude. The family is passionate about giving back to St. Jude and partnering with them given the wonderful treatment and support they received.

Thanks to donors like you, no family ever receives a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food - because all a family should worry about is helping their child live. Treatments invented at St. Jude have helped push the overall childhood cancer survival rate from 20% to more than 80% since it opened more than 50 years ago.

Join us in donating and attending our regatta events. Together we can help St. Jude change the world.

Thursday, July 25: Double-Handed Regatta and Ladies Regatta

Saturday, July 27: Charity Cup Regatta Day 1 (PHRF, One Design, and JAM sailboat racing) followed by Blender Party
