Hi Ladies,
Dot Kersanac-Burns, President
228-326-5527
Looking back to April, we had wonderful weather for our annual Review of the Fleet, good turnout, and
usual great eats as well as fantastic music by Walter s Jazz Band following a delightful Bail the Bilge and
Prospective Members party the previous night. To add to the event, the sax playing in the background in
the bar area was a very special touch.
Wednesday night sailing is continuing with gusto and with such beautiful weather, more and more
members and guests are attending luncheons, dinners, and just relaxing and enjoying the Bay breeze off
the porch. If you haven t had the opportunity yet, you re really missing out on a wonderful event!
I m sure the Easter Egg Hunt was a great success as well as the usual annual Harry s Crawfish Boil sell
out. Then, of course, was the Easter Buffet and hopefully, everyone had a wonderful Easter with family
and friends! And congratulations to the winner of THE GRAND RAFFLE!!
Looking into our May events, we have the Mother s Day Buffet on the 8 th HAPPY MOTHER S DAY
TO MOMS, GRAMS, AND GREAT-GRAMS. Also on the 7 th is a benefit bingo for Boys and Girls Club
of America. Tickets are available from Kathleen Jenkins and Susan Carron (our Outreach Co-chairs)
please help support such a worthy cause (our new facility in the Bay needs your extra support in its initial
phases).
The annual Bridge Fest has expanded to two days this year-- May 14 and 15 th -- where we ll have on
display our Wagon of Cheer as we kick off our annual raffle. Chair for this event is Nancy Finlason and
tickets will be available starting at the Bridge Fest, continuing here at the Club, from LAUX members,
with drawing at the Deacon John dance. Hope to see ya at some of these events!
