Hello all Pacific Northwest MTOA Members!2008 is going to be GREAT!!!!
Now that the holidays are over and we have our sights on the year ahead, let’s all take a good look at what is coming up this year.
We have the pleasure of a really cool blog, created and maintained by Tina Tyler. The address is http://www.pnwmtoa.blogspot.com. This shows all the calendar information on our 2008 plans, plus write ups and photos from the events of the past. Please take a moment and check out our ‘electronic bulletin board.’
Speaking of plans for this year, let’s take a moment and talk about them….
We have the luncheon gathering at the home of Leo and Sherry Glahn on February 16th. This will be a fun event, with an opportunity for reconnections between all of our members after the holidays and during the quiet winter months.
Greg and Tina Tyler are planning a MTOA weekend cruise to Port Ludlow. This is set for June 6 – 8, 2008. The marina has no conflicts with these dates and is awaiting our arrival. The facilities are very good, and they have a restaurant that serves some pretty good food. There are hotel facilities on site for those who don’t want to cruise in. Greg Tyler will send out an email flyer when the plans are finalized. We ask your support in spreading the word at your local marinas and amongst your boating friends.
August 15 – 17, 2008 we will have our annual rendezvous at Port Orchard. Co-chairs Dale and Jania Johnson have been working hard with the Tylers on the plans for that weekend. This is our third year at this marina. It will be a good time, and more details, flyers, and registration information will be coming out in the next month or two. Again, invite a friend to join us and ‘test’ the water of our fun little group.
As a reminder, last year we had a luncheon at the Clearwater Casino, a brunch in Edmonds, as well as the annual Port Orchard Rendevous. As always, the success of the club depends on your participation and assistance in making these events happen. We have great sponsors for these events and would like to see others step up too. So, if you have some ideas and want to coordinate an event – let folks know!
Check the blog for flyers and make some notes on your calendars!
