Assembling the docks for the Sailing School on Saturday, April 30" 9AM

Dear Friends,

"Winter was brutal and spring isn't much better, so it's time to rouse yourself from self pity and do something that will make you (and me) feel really good.



What could that be........... you ask?

If you guessed "assemble the docks for the Sailing School on Saturday, April 30" then you have earned yourself free coffee and bagels at the boathouse.



This is the annual gala event that is not to be missed--red carpet and paparazzi for sure. So put it on your calendar today and gain the undying gratitude of your faithful servant, Larry.



P.S. The fun begins at 9 am and should be finished by noon; bagels and coffee for all."



Wish you could ion the fun.
 
Larry

A buoy needed for Nabil's Keelboat

We found a buoy for Nabil at the North Wall, it took 10 minutes and am 3000 miles away.
Thanks Larry.

Dear friends,

I hope you all have been lucky with the buoy drawing for the 2011 season.

We are looking to help out one of the Keelboat racers to still get a buoy at Lake Calhoun, as Nabil was in Phuket having a good time he totally forgot to get his buoy for the season.



If somebody can help here or knows somebody who has one but will not use it, please leave a comment on the blog or contact me at henkberkheij@gmail.com



Thanks and have a great season.
