Labor Day Cruise...

This year's Labor Day cruise will be held on August
30 and 31 and September 1 at the Shelter Island
Yacht Club on Long Island.  Most SCC boats will be
leaving on Saturday morning, August 30, for the
35-mile sail to Dering Harbor.  We will be
returning to Stonington on Labor Day which is
Monday, September 1.

We are planning a group dinner at the yacht club
on Saturday evening.   Note:  Men must wear jacket
and tie at this dinner.

We will not be able to use the club's facilities on
Sunday because of a large members' party that's
planned for that day, so the current plan is to have
drinks and dinner on our moorings -- or in
Greenport, NY which is available by ferry.  

Launch service will be operating to and from the
club's dock, and the bathrooms and showers will
be available on Sunday.
