[Public-List] Review Please

[Meinhold, Michael J.]

Dear Alberg Enthusiasts,
 
    You may be aware that the Chesapeake Bay Alberg 30 Association runs
a series of 4 Seminars every February. We discuss the upcoming racing
and cruising season, and we bring in interesting speakers on aspects of
sailing, racing, cruising, the Bay and other topics.  
 
   Our first Seminar is tomorrow ! Sorry for the late invitation, but we
would like to invite non-members to come and see what the A30
Association is and does, and enjoy some interesting talks. 

    The Seminars are open to members for free. If you are not a member,
we will have membership forms and someone to take your membership fee of
$45 at each Seminar. Note that you must own an Alberg 30 to join. If you
don't own an Alberg but still want to come, you may come to the seminar
for a $15 fee. 

   Note that members are also invited to the after party which is hosted
at a different association member's home each Saturday, and you will get
to come to the rest of the seminars for free (not to mention all the
other benefits of membership such as receiving The Mainsheet).    If you
have any questions, please email me directly (mmeinhold at comcast.net).
