Dear KBIA Sailing families, 

Happy April! Below you will find a list of MIRC dates that KBIA’s race program will plan on both attending and hosting this summer. Also listed is the annual Reid Sacco Regatta, which is open to all KBIA members. 

We will note that dates listed remain tentative as New England Sailing’s scheduling continues to update as we approach summer. However, plan on marking these dates in your calendars as the race team will work to attend as many MIRCs as possible. 

Summer 2026 MIRC schedule: 

July 8: MIRCPortland Yacht Club 
July 16: Laser Clinic, KBIA 
July 22: MIRC, Prouts Neck Yacht Club 
July 29: MIRCKBIA
August 2: Reid Sacco, KBIA (open to all members)  
August 5: MIRC, Peaks Island TEIA 
August 12: MIRC, KBIA

MIRCs are daylong youth regattas where KBIA sailors will depart from campus in the morning and return by late afternoon. They are always fun-filled days marked by a good competitive spirit and sportsmanship. We heavily encourage all students enrolled in the race program to attend. Scheduling logistics for each MIRC will be communicated to parents the week prior. 

As with each newsletter, if you have any questions about the race program, MIRCs, or KBIA sailing generally, please contact Nolan Byron ([email protected]) or Jamie LaMent ([email protected]). 

Best,
