Lutherville native Charlie Singer is juggling school and a lifelong dream. He'll have a chance to realize that dream starting Friday. Singer, 19, is a rising sophomore at Tulane studying business and architecture. He also is enrolled in the Oakcliff Sailing Center's Sapling program, an exclusive summer-long camp that helps give 12 to 15 aspiring professional sailors ages to 18 to 30 the skills they need to succeed in yacht racing. Beginning Friday, Singer, along with seven other Sapling members, will be part of a team competing in the Annapolis to Newport Race aboard the Temptation-Oakcliff, a 50-foot yacht sailing from the mouth of the Severn River to Castle Hill Light in Newport Neck, R.I. Singer said focusing exclusively on yacht racing this summer has been a welcome change, especially because he will get to compete in his longest race to date this weekend.
