Atta writes,
Hello everyone;
I hope you all have had a great Christmas and you will be ready to join us on our first cruise out event – the traditional New Year’s Day cruise around the island.
We plan to meet up at the club house on Sunday morning at 9am. We’ll have a continental breakfast and then sail out around 10am. The trip usually takes a couple of hours and then we will be back to the club house for lunch, drinks and tons of fun. Bring your smiles but leave your resolutions at home, we’ve probably heard them before!!!
Please RSVP so we will have an idea of the number of people to plan for.
Hope to see you all there. Merry Christmas and the Happiest of New Year.
