A cool place to hang out, if needed

Cedar Mills cabins are gone but there are a few other marinas in the area with cabins, or you can make a 20-minute drive to Whitesboro and stay in a new hotel. .

Communications Alert


The Squadron email list has recently been revamped and place in a Gmail file that is password protected. (Gmail is a free online email service.) This will allow for an easier transition when responsibility for the list changes hands.

If you have news that needs to be disseminated to the Squadron, contact Steve Pierce and he will help you access the list.
