Lobster
Boil On the Beach
No need to check the lobster traps, we'll do it
for you. Come on down
to the beach on August 11th at 6:00 PM for the annual
LBYC Lobster Boil. Those tasty crustaceans will soon be winging
their way to the shores of Lake Michigan for your eating delight.
This is always one of the nicest events of the summer season.
Mark it on your schedule now to enjoy an evening of good
food, friends and fun on the beach. A separate invitation and sign up form will be coming in
the next few weeks.
Help
House a Sailor
Volunteers are needed to house participants in
the 2001 North American’s during the first week of August. This is a great way to meet sailors from around the country
and even from some foreign countries.
If you can help out by giving an out of town sailor a place
to sleep, please call Karen Jenkins at 234-2532.
