1 OCEAN PINES BOAT CLUB, INC. THE VOICE Website: oceanpinesboatclub.org August 2018 COMMODORE S CORNER Well, it happened again. The weather made us cancel the second raft-up. It seems we are following the same path as last year where we were only able to have one raft-up due to the weather. Hope it ends here. Each year we try to plan different activities from our regular events. Doris Lloyd has planned a trip to Lewes, DE to tour, the last lightship ever built and the Zwaanendale Museum. Joe DiMartino has planned a golf outing at Riddle Farms 9 hole course. He also is trying to plan a day of trap shooting and a BBQ. Here are three great events we can look forward to. If these events are not to your liking, give us an idea of what you would like. Your input is very important to us. You can call any member of the Board, including me. The phone numbers and addresses for all Board members are listed on the last page of this VOICE. Pat Marchesiello Commodore LIST OF EVENTS RAFT-UP STEVE STEIN RAFT-UP FRED HEINLEN RAFT-UP CAPT.
