SUNDAY NOVEMBER 8th FALL MEETING AT DAVE FORTIER’S.

11:00 am Meeting, USUAL POT LUCK LUNCH to follow.

At the spring meeting we held the meeting first and had lunch afterwards. By all accounts it was an improved format, so we’ll do the same at Dave’s. Much better to rush through the meeting to get to lunch than the other way ’round.

Bring some food or drink to share. There will be hot protein and a grill. Don’t forget to show up with a burgee design.

As always, this will follow the NEIYA Meeting and Swap Meet (below) on Saturday 11/7. The swap meet is a must-attend for all kinds of gear, complete boats, and a great way to meet your iceboating buddies without helmets and goggles, and just to get a good pre-season gulp of the Kool-aid!

Directions to Dave’s: Maine Turnpike Exit 32, turn left at light at exit onto Rte 111 for a couple of miles. At a complex intersection tend rightish onto West St. between a Burger King and a cemetery, go about 3 miles past a high school and through another light. At the next intersection turn Right onto Guinea Rd. then about 1/2 mile turn right onto Cretien Rd. to second house from the corner on right (two buildings connected by a raised walkway).

And don’t forget about these goodies. There were a few times last season when throw ropes and picks kept the day fun.
