On May 1, 2021, Western Carolina Sailing Club will host the 10th Annual Diva Regatta benefiting Safe Harbor. Over the last 9 years this event has raised more than $115,000 for Safe Harbor, and we hope to blow our fundraising goal out of the water again this year!
The Diva Regatta includes a Distance Course (Pursuit Start) open to all boats with 2 fleets; one requiring a female at the helm and the other requiring a female participating on board. The event rounds out with an evening of music, delicious food and the signature cake walk, raffles, and a sailing awards ceremony.
The Diva Regatta is a great event supporting an even greater cause, Safe Harbor. Safe Harbor is a private 501(c)3 non-profit organization that offers a continuum of services for survivors of domestic violence and their children in Greenville, Anderson, Pickens and Oconee Counties. Services include a 24/7 help line, safe emergency shelters, counseling for survivors and their children, advocacy, transitional housing, domestic violence education classes, parenting classes, and group support.
If you have questions about the event or are interested in sponsoring, please contact Jessica Bilcliff, Safe Harbor Annual Fund and Database Manager, at jessica.bilcliff@safeharborsc.org or 864-918-3747.
