Labor Day Weekend Rendezvous at Deep
River - Sept. 3 to 6, 2010
Elwin and Cheryl Schwartz
will be coordinating Fleet 5’s 15th annual rendezvous at
Deep River Marina (including the years we were rained out).
Hi all, all arrangements are set for the
labor day weekend.
- Brewers Deep River is expecting about
10 boats (+/-). Everyone who is bringing their boat needs to
call and make their own arrangements.
- The dock at Goodspeed is all set for
2 boats. Thom and Doug have the reservation form in case of
any questions.
- The Beer Garden at Gelston house has
reservations for 25 people (+/-) for 12:00 noon.
- The Ivory Restaurant is also expecting
about 25 people for Sunday night at 7:00 PM.
- Those going to see Carnival at Goodspeed
on Sunday have to call and make their own reservations for seats.
During intermission you can use the Green Room at the top of
the stairs to get together, and have your drinks delivered there
if you order them before the show. Just say that you are with
the group that I as a member was invited to Goodspeed. There
won't be a problem.
- Saturday night will be a pot luck bar-b-q
on shore at Brewers Deep River Marina, plan for a 5:30 starting.
- Cheryl and I plan to be around Friday
and Saturday. If the weather is fair we will sail up to Hamburg
Cove on Friday and then home on Saturday but then drive to Brewers
for the dinner.
That should cover the weekend.
The views along the river are worth the
trip by themselves and September can be a really beautiful time
on the river. We often have an evening mist on the river that
lasts till dawn. The Essex Steam Train is a study in nostalgia
with its tooting, hissing, huffing and puffing as it crosses the
grade right by the entrance to the marina. Remember to keep the
flashing green “35” light tower on the pile of rocks
to your starboard as you enter the marina
