We are starting this summer with newly resurfaced tennis courts and significant Yacht Club renovations –  improvements made possible to a large extent by Recreation Committee money raised at the 2013 auction, annual chowder picnics and other fundraisers over the past several years. New tables for the Yacht Club deck and three chowder pots were purchased in June. These much welcome projects and expenditures have nearly depleted the Rec Committee treasury.  So, it’s time to have some fun raising funds for additional “wish list” projects for the yacht club and playhouse, e.g., new cushions for the playhouse, a long needed broom/utility closet in the playhouse, etc.

The Recreation Committee is organizing a special Saturday Evening Cocktail Party and Auction on August 5th, at 6:00 pm. Bring your cocktails, favorite hors d’oeuvres, enjoy the glorious sunset and take home a treasure.

We need your help! Add your creative donation — a work of art or handicraft, a picnic or sunset sail, a special dinner, your famous pie, a theme basket, etc.  Let your imagination be your guide. Questions?  Contact Gerry Welch or Rachel Baumgartner.
