Over 40 of us had a great time cruising on the Maumee River on the Sandpiper. Thanks Mary for a great time!
Sandpiper Cruise tonight
Instead of our regular August meeting, we are having a river/bay cruise on the Sandpiper!
The cruise will take place on Wednesday, August 22. We begin boarding promptly at 6:45 pm, and leave the dock at 7:00. This will be a lovely evening cruise operated by PPBA member Mary Dalby and her Sandpiper boat.
The cost is only $15 for members, and $20 for guests.This includes both your cruise and your meal!
The Sandpiper is docked at Promenade Park at Jefferson and Water Streets in downtown Toledo. Come early to make sure you find a place to park and get on board on time.
