FAT DADDY'S OUTINGMoving On
We recently lost two of our pier familes. Dale and Marsha Grasher put Blown Away up for sale last fall. They decided to indulge in some traveling by land for the near future. In March, Mike and Janet Dorsey moved to North Carolina. They bought a house on a golf course where Mike can daily indulge his other love.

YOUR OPINION IS NEEDEDPier 4 Sponsorship of CYC EventFrom Mark SundermanIt was Susan and my great pleasure to participate in several of the Pier Four activities last season. I thought the soup throw down and the seafood boil were just great. Perhaps I shouldn’t have bragged about our pier parties so much because we have been asked as a pier to consider sponsoring one of the Commonwealth Yacht Club’s cruising events this year. Some of you have attended several of the CYC cruising functions and know how much fun it can be to take our boats, meet our friends, eat some food and hope we are able to get back to our boats. As I look at the 2008 cruising schedule, I see three or four events that we could choose to head up. If you want to see the entire schedule go to www.cycgtb.com and look for the 2008 cruise schedule. The events would be the BBQ at Smith Bay on April 19, the rendezvous at Pisgah Bay on June 7, the seafood boil at Smith Bay on September 6 and maybe the raft up for fireworks on July 4 th. The BBQ on April 19 is also the date for the Kentucky Lake Sailing Clubs 100k race. The other dates are free. The BBQ and seafood boil are self-explanatory but the Rendezvous could be anything we want (wine and beer tasting, hot dog roast, etc.) The 4 th of July would be harder just because it is a raft up. The events should be self-funded so we would be in charge of organizing and executing. We would probably need to do the shopping. We probably need a consensus of at least four or five so the work seems like fun instead of work. The first event is only about 8 weeks away so if your interested let Vickie know ASAP so the planning can begin. See You on the Pier.Please email Mark or Vickie. Include in your email: 1) if you want Pier 4 to sponsor an event, 2) which event, and 3) how much time you will volunteer to organizing and working the event. |
