Only if you can make it more cryptic than this:

little known 'happening' that occurs on the first weekend following a full moon after the memorial weekend

Perhaps some references to the Aztec Calendar.

"Little known", I bet.

Hi All...
Well the schedule is filling up for September and October.

Here is a proposal:

Dates:
October 11 and 12
Saturday and Sunday

Location:
Option 1) Wye River - many nice anchorages in the area
Option 2) Near Mears Marina North of Kent Is. - I'm sure there are anchorages.
Option 3) Something to do with the boat show in Annapolis? Any ideas?


I welcome your thoughts and or suggestions.

Other dates in October would rule this out for me...I'll be traveling a great deal and other weekends are already booked. September is full as well. (Of course you all could just plan it another day for that very reason! )


Thanks,

[labatt]

Just FYI - the 10th and 11th are two of the dates of the Annapolis Boat Show... (starts the Thursday before and runs through Monday)

Right. Thus option 3 above. Do you think it makes sense to have a "land meeting" at the show?

Any thoughts?

[labatt]

We had a small get together last year at the Port Annapolis Marina. It was nice to meet fellow SailNetter's. I'm up for a land meeting on Friday evening or Sunday evening.

Sure, it was fun last year, lets do it again. BYOB and we'll order pizza.

Directions are here: Welcome to PortAnnapolis Marina

and if you click on the tab marked "maps" you can get a marina layout. We'll try to get one of the gazebos - a bit nicer than the spot we were in last year because they have light, and one is even screened to keep bugs out.

If we can't get a gazebo, then I can bring an oil lantern and a few candles. If we get a couple people to do the same, then light and bugs shouldn't be too much of a problem.

Sounds good. We'd good from Oct. 6th through the 17th anywhere from
Rock Hall to the Solomon's.

The Boat Show weekend would definitely be by car for us.

I'm still up for a raft up in October or November.
