ODZIOZO RACE
• ADVENTURE MEMORIAL TROPHY •

First Overall on Corrected Time — Combined Results
29th Consecutive Awarding — 2011

This race was created in 1982 by Commodore Bob Dunn and Regatta Chair Bob Penniman to be one of the two Lake Champlain Racing Conference races sponsored by LCYC (the Macdonough being the other). Since 1968, when LCRC was formed, the Ladies Cup Race had doubled as an LCRC race, with a second race a day later to provide the two-race LCRC format. But in 1982 the Board of Governors decided that the Ladies Cup Race should henceforth be a stand-alone event, and the need for a new two-day race came about. The Odziozo Regatta was the result.

Until 2001 the regatta was a two-day event. One day featured a single race, usually mostly or totally in the broad lake using LCYC racing marks, government marks, or both. The other day featured two races, one in the morning, a short break for lunch, then an afternoon race. These two races were traditionally windward/leeward. usually using a windward drop-mark controlled by a chase boat to ensure windward/leeward legs, with the length and number of the legs determined by the winds at the time.

In 2001, after years of declining participation, the LCRC format for organized lake-wide racing ended. The club decided to keep the race in its schedule as a one-day race with racers from other clubs invited to participate in the hope that the race would continue in its intended purpose to foster cross-club competition.

"This piece was created by Jack Spaulding Chase in 1983 under commission from Robert Gilbert Dunn and Francoise Prince Dunn in honor of his parents Harry Smith Dunn and Eugenia Parker Dunn. The Chases join the Dunns in dedicating this work to those determined pioneers who built the good boat Adventure during the winter of 1779 and with God's permission undertook a river voyage of more than 1000 miles, overcoming the hazards of cold, current, smallpox, hostile indians, boiling rapids, hunger, fatigue and the uncharted wilderness in their pursuit to reach their destination and join in the establishment of a settlement which is now Nashville, Tennessee."
