Greetings All,

Looking for a volunteer or two to help clean up after the pot luck portion is completed. Vicki and I will be pouring from 5:30-7:30PM. After which the party may continue if you choose… I’m sure there will be some wine left??
We will hold a 50/50 for the Veterans Cookout. Wishing you all good luck.. but there can only be one winner.
Sign up here: Capping the tasting at 35 people.
A preview of the tasting is available here. PLEASE BRING A GLASS, as glassware is limited at the club.

Nautical Flea Market June 10, 12 to 3

Got a box of boat parts in your basement? Sold your boat and have boxes of zincs, cleats, line, sailboat hardware taking up your storage area? Need a winch handle and don’t want to spend $70? Our first ever nautical flea market on June 10 from 12 to 3 is for you!

Using the regular flea market format we will have ten tables outside available at the ridiculously high price of price of $5/table, payable at the door. First come first reserved. Reserve your table by emailing Lou at quiltedsailor@verizon.net. A few thigs to consider:

Nautical items only, although nautical outerwear (fowlies, sea boots, “like new” SWYC sweatshirts that you outgrew) are acceptable.
We will utilize the glass top tables so be prepared to display heavier items on the deck.
All items must be lumped in and out using club or personal carts. No vehicles allowed in the park.
No heavy items such as engines, transmissions please. If you have those items bring pictures for display.
No rain date, if we have to cancel you will have to keep your stuff until next year
The club will supply one table per person, again see restrictions about glass top tables.
All sold and unsold items must be removed from the club at the end of the event. No “stories” at the club. There is a potluck supper/game night in the evening.
Most of the deck will be used for the event but the east veranda and inside tables will be available for general use. Plan accordingly.

So sellers get your gear together and buyers make a list of what bargains you want and all plan to attend
