Bruce's notes: My Welsford skiff "Twisted-Seagull" will be there of course. Along with the school built June Bug. John Bartlett will be there, I think with his Loon, and Paul McLellen's Bolger housebout. More also.
Messabouting in general all day Saturday, Pot luck dinner in the clubhouse Saturday at 7 pm. (I'm making a big spicy Jambalaya).
My uploading program has crashed so I can't update names and pics of confirmed attendees, but it should be a blast as always.
Email Bruce for his cell number, which will be on all weekend unless he drops it in the river again.
