Speaking of
missing a good time, I'm sure most of you have heard about
the Grand Opening of the Bremerton Marina on May 31st. BYC was the
"Host" Yacht Club, and "Host" it we did. Between Friday and Saturday,
hundreds of boats, including almost 50 from BYC, arrived from all over
Puget Sound, and Good Old BYC Members were there to greet each and
every one who arrived. Thanks to some dedicated and, very Hard Working,
BYC "Dock Masters" , each boater was greeted with a canvass "Moorage
Bag" that contained information on their "Free" moorage, Free
electrical, and Free Hospitality Party. In addition, they received gate
codes, gifts from local merchants, and other "goodies". Thank you so
much, each and every one of you Terrific Dock Masters.

| Some 23 Yachts from the Bremerton Yacht club were treated to a wonderful time as were a good many other boaters (approx 300) who signed up for the opening weekend at the Bremerton Marina. Difficulties for some arriving into the marina as well as leaving, but sprits were good and fun had by all. Boaters were treated by Anthony's to Salmon, BBQ ribs, Oysters, as finger foods passed around by waiters on platters and cake for dessert. The Marina put on a Hotdog feed as well with West Marine showing all the new gadgets on the Public Pier. I would like to thank those who had the blue balloon on their boat and helped all boaters on their pier, with their registering of visitors and getting the welcome packets to them. You can read the reports of opening day from the Bremerton Sun on the BYC web page. [V/C Don Park] |
