We have a couple of club events this summer. First being our annual weekend at Santorini (LIEC) on June 26^th. This is a great weekend for members and their families to relax, enjoy themselves and have a great time, as well as get to meet and bond with other clubs. This year we will be with the Veteran’s Club. If you didn’t sign up this year to come, please make sure you do next year, as it’s first come, first serve and it’s a great time for you and your family.

Our other event will be our annual club fishing trip, on Sunday August 9^th at 8:00am on the Bay Princess out of Captree State Park, LI. See attached flyer for more information. Come and support the club and have a fun day with your family on the water catching fish.  Looking forward to seeing everybody there.
