Crew Picnic Sunday September 17th.

Our Lake MacBride Potluck is coming up on September 17th. It will be at Sailboat shelter #1 from 11:00 to 3:00. We can eat first, then start our activities.

We need to get a count of who is coming so we know how many boats and how much food we need. Please fill out the google doc on the link below with how many people from your party will be coming, what food dish you plan to bring, and if you have a canoe or kayak we can use.

Please feel free to bring fishing gear if you want. We will have some extra available if you do not have any. Anyone age 16+ will need a valid fishing license to fish.
