PRESS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE West Coast Sailing to Sponsor Another Olympic Hopeful
Portland, OR 9/6/06 – West Coast Sailing today announces sponsorship of Seattle sailor Emery Wager. Wager is joining Brendan Fahey on the path towards an Olympic Campaign.
West Coast Sailing sells the single-person Olympic class ‘Laser’ that attracts the best small boat sailors in the world.
Both athletes have extensive experience competing with these boats on college, national and international levels. These NW sailors are committed to the rigorous work required to push them to the highest levels of the sport.
‘Emery and Brendan are special athletes’ said West Coast Sailing owner George Yioulos. ‘We are pleased to have them both represent our company.'
‘Not only are both tremendous sailors, they are ambassadors for the entire sport, on and off the water. West Coast Sailing hope to be with them year by year as they pursue their dreams.’
‘It’s been the goal of the company from day one to give back to the local community. With the help of sailors in Washington and Oregon we are able to support two of the best young laser sailors in the Northwest.'
The company will provide the men with boats, sails and sailing apparel. Direct donations to the boys’ campaigns will soon be available via a non-profit the company is helping to establish.
