Friday, June 27th
Meet at FBYC club house for happy hour at 1800 hours. Bring an app to share and your bev of choice.
Saturday, June 28th
1100 hours: Rendezvous around FBYC A, which is Piankatank 5. An around the marks course will be announced on 72. Sail at your leisure. Remember, two boats going the same direction are racing.
Following the completion of the course, anchor or raft in Jackson Creek.
1500 hours: Dinghy to Redneck Riviera sand bar at the mouth of Jackson Creek for socializing on the bar. BYO whatever.
1630 hours, or when you want: Dinghy to Deltaville Maritime Museum for the Groovn’ concert. You enter on Mill Creek where the condos are at the sharp turn in the channel. There is dinghy dock space near the F.D. Crockett.
1700 to 2000 hours: Michael Hazelwood and The Freight Train Five (genuine country)
You can buy your tickets ahead of time at local businesses. Or, when you dock, go straight to the gate and pay. Tickets are $15 ahead or $20 after 1600 hours.
Dinner on your own ahead of time or take advantage of the concessions available. Bring chairs, if you want.
Sunday, June 29th
Raise anchor, go for a day sail, and work your way back to your home berth.
