DOG DAYS OF AUGUST DOCKSIDE RENDEZVOUS
Sat., Aug. 21, 5 pm. to 8 p.m.
Calling all CGSC dogs! Come out for a party and a show.
Yes, we'll have the popular "stay" contest, and of course "best trick," and assigning points for the best cat walk down the CGSC dock.
But as much as the dogs liked putting on a show last year, the dog biscuits at the bar seemed to be the most popular. And chef Alan Creed will be grilling hot dogs and having other treats for the owners.
We'll reserve the dock for CGSC boats with dogs aboard, so stow your water bowls and tie up. But no boats required for this rendezvous-- everyone should come out for this FREE party. Don't forget to bring a chair or blanket for the movie on the sail.

Just sit right back and you’ll hear a tale
A tale of a weekend trip
That started at the Sailing Club
Aboard some motley ships
The mates tossed the mooring lines away
The skippers southward steered
Forget the dark clouds to the east
It’s the mosquitoes that we feared
… the mosquitoes that we feared
The compasses they worked fine that day
But cell phones all were tossed
Ships vanished on the course we set
For three days, we got lost
… For three days, we got lost
The fleet dropped their hooks off the shore of this
Uncharted Biscayne Isle
With a Goombay Bar
and Bean Soup, too
The Opti sailors
and their crew
The Com-mo-dore
Pirates' treasure, and the rest
Here on Ell-i-ott's Isle
