2014 Oday rOnDAYvous

rOnDAYvous is set for July 11,12,13 in New London.

Ahoy Odayers:
*
So far we have heard from 8 boats that they have or will reserve space at New London docks or hotels.* If you have decided to attend but have not yet reserved, now may be the time to do so.* As mentioned in past emails, this SAILFEST is a very popular event and attracts all kinds of interest (and some very weird people, now that I think of it).
*
As we await the final tally of where boats will go (Crockers, Burrs, Thames, or Town Moorings, or hotels)....we will later make a decision for the location of the Friday Night POT LUCK --- it will be arranged where most boats are docked.* As far as the Saturday night dinner is concerned, we are still planning to have it at the restaurant ON THE SOUND, next to Burrs and Thames.
*
Reminder:
*
A.* Crockers == $380 for two nights** (800) 870-1285
*
B.* Burrs == $2.50 per foot per night* (860) 443-8457
*
C.* Thames == $2.50 per foot per night** (860) 442-1151
*
D.* Town Moorings == $180 for three nights (whether you need three or not, it’s still $180).* (860) 443-6304
*
As of today we are not planning on having a dinghy race.* WHY?* Because in the past we used the event to fill in some time when we were at locations where there was not a lot of things to do.* In New London there will be shopping (for the ladies), live bands, tall ships, Revolutionary Fort, etc.* If, on the other hand, (there are five fingers)......there is interest in having the race, we welcome anyone so inclined to coordinate such activity and run with the ball.
