Activities Abound with The Marco Bay Yacht Club!

Known by many as "The Fun Club", The Marco Bay Yacht Club, following the installation of our new Bridge (Capt. Sandy LaMontagne, Commodore; Linda Gagnon, Vice Commodore; and Charles Erker, Rear Commodore) finished February and began March with some exciting activities, and has a full slate of upcoming activities for both boaters and non-boaters!

On February 28, we had two events. The first, "circumnavigate Marco" with about 13 boats that finished up at Paradise Found in Goodland and where over 40 people had a most enjoyable lunch. The second was our 4:30 traditional last day of the Month "Monday Madness" where another 40+ enjoyed cocktails and conversation at CJ's on the Bay.

March 3, we had our Presentation of the Fleet and although The Esplanade limited the number of boats to eight due to dock availability, another 40+ enjoyed fun, friends, and lunch at CJ's.

Upcoming events include a cruise to Burnt Store Marina and Tween Waters; a "Scavenger Hunt" for our day fleet; First Mates will have a "Mexican Train" afternoon March 15 and on the 29th a Line Dancing event led by a professional dancer. March 28th will be our usual last Monday madness.

April has yet another cruise planned, as well as some day fleet events and several First Mate events. Even though our seasonal members typically begin to leave in May we will continue to have events during the summer including a monthly "Dine-a-Round", informal cruising and day fleet events, and our Monday Madness.
