[Dupage] Chain-O-Lakes Cruise

[James Rielinger]

Folks,

I learned something today.  Boaters on the Chain must have a 
Chain-O-Lakes permit.  The permits are $60 for the year or $10 for a one 
day permit.  The Chain-O-Lakes AO has offered to pick up the permits for 
our members as long as he is re-imbursed for them.  Therefore, it is 
essential that we know who is bringing a boat ASAP.  I assume that 
boaters that keep their boats on the Chain will have the permits.  So 
far I have 2 boats from Fox Valley Squadron and 2, possibly 3 boats from 
DuPage.  (Phil & Cor, you are the only ones bringing a boat on a trailer 
so far.)  Chicago and  Chain-O-Lakes Squadrons are handling their own 
reservations.  PLEASE CONTACT HOWIE MOORE OR ME ASAP AND LET US KNOW IF 
YOU ARE GOING TO ATTEND AND IF YOU WILL BRING A BOAT!!!  Do not contact 
Bill Nicholson.  There will be room on some boats for people coming 
without one.

I do not know for sure if a one day permit will be sufficient for people 
staying overnight.  I assume that you will be okay as long as you stay 
in the Marina except for Saturday.  I will email a schedule as soon as I 
have agreement with the Chain-O-Lakes AO.

A few Marinas are offering reduced rates for Squadron members.  I have 
included below the information that I have so far.  I still have a few 
marinas to talk to.

Please plan on coming.  It will be a fun day.
