CRUISING CLUB NOTES

A

lthough when I look out my window I see not a single sign of spring, you can’t deny that it’s on the way. A couple of confused robins were hopping around our backyard this morning, despite the

winter walloping that is forecast for the weekend. We’re all still wearing socks without complaint. But we’re curious as to how you’re surviving this Never Ending Winter. Have any horror stories for us, of the bubbler

breaking or the shrink wrap ripping? How about your patented best Hot Toddy recipe to keep that cold winter wind at bay? Whatever it is, send it to us at duffy@proptalk. com, and let’s get you in these pages.

Ready to Get Involved?

he Chesapeake Bay Power Boat Association (CBPBA) is a group of power boaters who love and respect the Bay and do what we can to preserve it. We are an active group that has many activities throughout the year, like cruises, raft ups, poker runs and sanction races. We are a generous group giving time and money for events like Leukemia/Lymphoma, March of Dimes and Wounded Warrior. Our club serves as the safety net of boats to protect the swimmers at the Bay Swim. We have been around since the 80’s and have the best group of boaters on the bay. Always looking for folks to join us, our dues are only $75 a year, and members get that back quickly with all the discounts our supporters offer our members.

Front Row: Mike Yowaiski, Race Director, Karen Ressler, Secretary, Scott Smith, Sr Vice President, Jeff Whetzel, President, Lenny Nemec, Ted Ginnity, Dave Burke, Jimmy Jernigan. Back Row:

Gary Miller, Jim Voege, Treasurer, Joe Lorentzen, Steve Daly, Craig Hall and Chip Manning. With the dedication and talents of this board it promises to be another great year for CBPBA. cbpba.com
