July 4th Weekend

The forecast for the weekend looks good: Highs in the upper 80’s, lows in the lower 70’s and wind about 8 mph. Well we could stand a little more wind. The weather has been great for the last week. I have been sailing 4 of the last 5 days and have had good wind and relatively low temps. The wind was so strong one day that the Beneteau had the tip of the mast in the water one time. I had 4 teenagers on board and they were having a blast. Weather site: http://tinyurl.com/6pkdnb {{CRUISE:}} We have a cruise scheduled for this weekend. Doesn’t look like enough wind to make it to the Hwy 16 bridge but enough to make it to Goat Island or where ever. Is anyone interested is anchoring out Saturday night? We can plan to meet at a specified destination or you can pick your own private cove. IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO PARTICIPATE IN A CRUISE, PLEASE RESPOND TO THIS EMAIL. We can decide out destination later. {{WORK DAY REPORT:}} We had a good turnout for the work day. Several people brought string trimmers and one person brought his lawn mower. The club mowers received some minor repairs and we able to give the grounds a good mowing. The rope for the swimming area was replaced and a broken gutter on the front of the clubhouse was repaired. About 20 people enjoyed the traditional lunch prepared by Charlotte Harrell. {{ FIREWORKS AT MILLEDGEVILLE MALL:}} An announcement in the Milledgeville Union Recorder said that there would be a display at the mall starting between 9:30 to 10 PM . {{HOUSE BOAT BAN:}} The Putnam County Commissioners will have a public hearing on the proposed ordinance on July 22 at 6:30 PM at the courthouse in Eatonton. We need to ask questions at the hearing. If you can attend, please let me know. The proposed ordinance can be found at http://tinyurl.com/6py8qw
