This Coming Week
- Lauren’s 31st Birthday Celebration: Tonight! We will be hosting a twilight sail (weather/keen skippers permitting) – meeting @1700 on the pontoon. Snacks & nibbles will be provided on the jetty after sail (approx 1830-1900). We will then head to the boatshed for pizza & cake, but not before we polish off a few “warm-ups” on the boats (of course!) Pizza will be a $5 contribution per person and there will be a vegetarian option. All members welcome! NB: Post-sail drinks and nibbles may be relocated to the boatshed due to inclement weather.

Thanks in advance for your cooperation in this matter.
