Family Cruise - June 27 and 28
FAMILY FUN CRUISE
- Do you sail with your kids?
- Do you know other families who cruise with kids?
- Would it be fun for your kids (or grandkids, nieces, nephews, et al.) to meet and play with other cruising kids?
- Have you ever been to Cliff Island?
If your answer to any of these question is yes, then the Family Fun Cruise on June 27/28 is the place to be.
The weekend actually kicks off on Friday evening with a Pizza and Movie Party for the kids while the adults join in the Commodore’s Party. Some cruisers are already planning to sleep aboard on Friday night, so the Launch will run later to accommodate them.
To absorb some of the endless energy of youth, the young (and young at knee) will have a Four Square competition in the Parking Lot beginning at 9:00 AM. (if you have to ask what “Four Square” is, as I did, you are too old to play.)
11:00 AM brings the departure to Cliff Island, a great example of island culture at its best. Anchoring will be on the northwest side of the big cove on the north side of the island. (Note: depending on wind/weather conditions, the destination could change to something a bit more protected from the expected wind direction.) Want a learning moment? Ask an islander why the oldest houses face the open ocean.
At 3:00 PM ice cream lovers will rendezvous on the beach and walk to the local ice cream parlor (20-30 minutes one way).
Sunday departure is on your own. Note that the low tide Sunday morning should provide some fun beach time.
Be sure to register by calling the Club or e-mailing pyc@maine.rr.com.
