This is the second annual CSM and promises to be one of the biggest and most important open water venues on the Great Lakes. This race might also become the link between the US Surf Ski Champs out in San Francisco the week before and the New York Mayor's Cup race the week after. Featuring some incredible beaches, skyline and potentially challeging conditions along Lake Michigan's western shore, keep Chicago on your left and enjoy the final big deal in our region for the '08 season.

This will also serve as the second and final MiPP meeting of the year; plans for next season and awards for the seaon just concluded will be addressed here. Please join us to compete, volunteer, meet, or any combination you wish.
