The "Spirit of Ianelli" Award - Mia Taylor

The Sunrise Rotary Club’s Mayor's Cup Regatta & Festival Committee is pleased to announce that Mia Taylor, a 7 year-old from Peru, NY, has been named the 2023 “Spirit of Ianelli” Award honoree. The “Spirit of Ianelli” Award was established in 2010 in honor of the late Mayor John Ianelli, former Mayor of the City of Plattsburgh and co-founder of the Mayor’s Cup Regatta in 1978. This honor is bestowed upon an individual or individuals – sailor or landlubber – who exemplify the same ‘community does matter’ spirit that inspired Mayor Ianelli 45 years ago, empowering our lake community to thrive, not only on race day, but every day.
