CHILI CRUISE
Wednesday, September 30, 2015

Our annual end of the year event was the Chili Cruise. everyone met at the shelter on the beach at the Barnum Bay Marina.  Special chili dishes were combined into one delicious pot and enjoyed by all.  We shared salads, desserts, cider and great company.  Scotty built us a beautiful fire and we gathered around watching the sun setting over the lake,  sadly marking the end of another great sailing season.  
​Thanks to Jan and Jim Gerlach for hosting this nice event.
