Wayzata Officials Seek Int'l Sailing Racing For Lake Minnetonka
MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) – Wayzata community leaders are trying to bring an international sailing race to Lake Minnetonka.
The Star Tribune reported Wayzata wants to host a World Match Racing Tour in 2018.
Currently, these races are held in places like Copenhagen, Long Beach, Calif. and Perth, Australia.
Wayzata city officials envision a tour stop as the signature event in a new weeklong lake festival starting in 2018.
The tour just hosted a sailing exhibition on Wayzata Bay this past weekend.
The stop on Minnetonka would require $300,000 in fees.
