Grosse Pointe Yacht Club

Time: 11:00 am to 3:00 pm

Cost: Travel by boat is complimentary, plan for to purchase your own lunch. – Limited to the first 60 Eagle Scouts registered.

Attire: Clothing suitable for the weather and travel by boat. Be Prepared!

Our group will set sail from the Grosse Pointe Yacht Club at 11:00 AM sharp, traveling by powerboat(s) south on Lake St. Clair to the Detroit River and cruising past Belle Isle and the Detroit skyline. We then will circle back to Bayview Yacht Club for lunch. Following a brief meeting, fellow eagle scout Gary Marowske, chairman of the State of Michigan Harbor Commission, will present an overview of the recreational harbors in Michigan. We will arrive back at the GPYC in mid to late afternoon.

Bayview Yacht Club is a private, members-only club, located across from the northern tip of Belle Isle. It is considered to be one of the three premier sailing racing yacht clubs on the Great Lakes, the other two being the Chicago Yacht Club and the Royal Canadian Yacht Club in Toronto. We will be ordering from the menu and you will be responsible for paying for your own lunch.

This cruise will be limited to the first 36 to sign up. If you “miss the boat” or for other reasons should wish to travel by car, you may join the group at BYC around noon, but please let us know in advance so your name can be placed on the list for lunch and for entry into the club.

If you have questions about this Incredible event please contact Dr. Larry Stephenson at Cell (313) 910-9579 or e-mail to ad4384@wayne.edu.

Reserve your spot for this unique event today.  Head count is needed for planning purposes, registration closes August 15th, 2017. Be sure to share with other Eagle Scouts! Again, this is limited to the first 60 Eagle Scouts from our area!
