Yesterday was the first day of spring, and also the day I received the word that the winter cover has been removed from the O'Day. Can sailing season be far behind? Look for announcements about work sessions on all the boats, and please be generous about volunteering your time so we can get the boats in the water and get out sailing!
Monthly General Meeting, Tuesday March 26, 2019, 7:30pm. Keyport Yacht Club, 115 First St, Keyport
Note the new earlier starting time for the meeting. This is in response to members' comments about the meetings ending late on a weeknight.
Chris Brenner is a Trustee of the Jersey Coast Heritage Museum, as well as a contributor to the exhibit at Twin Lights (as well as being a long time sailor and boater!) A few years back, he produced a film about Highland Beach that in some ways kicked off the group that became the museum effort, etc. (My website for the films is www.destinationspast.com) Chris will talk about one of his films, Destinations Past: Highland Beach. It focused on the beach resort that thrived at the foot of Sandy Hook from the 1880’s until the 1960’s, but has vanished today.
Dinner before the meeting at Nemo Asian Fusion, 27 W Front St. Keyport, 6pm.
We need ideas for speakers and/or topics for our monthly meetings
If you know someone who can present a topic of interest to SEAS members, or if you attend a meeting somewhere else that has a presentation that you think would be relevant at a SEAS meeting, please let Joan Venezia know. If you are able to speak with the person about coming to a SEAS meeting that would be great, but if all you have is their name and contact information, with some background information about their topic and where you saw them, email it to Joan at joan.venezia@hotmail.com and she'll take it from there!
