This is a great opportunity to meet other people who might be interested in our hobby or who might have useful tips or information. Our club is featured prominently on the event’s website.

I think each of us should bring a table or two, a pop up shade if you have one, our boats, and tools to work on the boats. In addition, I think we should have:

A sign, business cards, and tri-fold pamphlets - Tom, I...

I expect Musashi, Gascogne, Indianapolis, Aroostook, Scharnhorst, and some Golos to be fully operational, so we have a good opportunity for a good battle.

We will be outdoors so social distancing should be straightforward.

I’m looking forward to our next meeting on 7/27. I think we are really coming together as a club and hobbyists.

That said, I believe there are some things we need to accomplish at the meet.

1. Sign liability waivers. By the existing by-laws, the basic requirement for membership is having a signed waiver on file.
2. Elect officers: President/XO, Technical Officer, and Yeoman/Financial Officer.
3. Select officers: Vice President/XO, Safety Officer, Laundry and Morale (and...

I believe people should plan to bring their boats that are close to completion, just need overhaul, etc..., along with the necessary parts and any tools. Likewise, we should bring parts and tools to share, too.

Tom is taking lead to look at a location, but I don’t think he has to bear sole responsibility - if you have a location or idea, please speak up....
