Here’s the latest scoop from our fearless leader – Nancy Tatom.

We’ve been pricing out a very lovely cocktail cruise for Friday evening (Bennie’s found some larger vessels that originate in the Tampa Bay area and that will come down to Sarasota to dock at Marina Jack’s); for Saturday, we are looking into having a golf tournament, organizing a photo session at RHS, and hosting a dinner dance event at a great new place in the Lakewood Ranch area that will be catered by Morton’s (formerly Marabel’s Market); Sunday will involve some sort of casual get-together – hopefully near the water (this is the most vague event so far). The October timeframe will give us more time to plan and will also provide better pricing for some of the lodging and events we’ve looked into. Plus, the weather will be much more pleasant. We’re still working on the ticket prices per event, but should be able to lock this down by the first of the year.

The committee will be meeting again this coming Tuesday so please send us your input. Email me or Nancy or feel free to post a comment.
