Recommended New Page

Build a 50th Anniversary Celebration page.

The Boathouse issue makes it clear that 2026 is more than a regular event season. A dedicated anniversary page should tell the club’s story, highlight the Real Runabouts milestone, honor founders, promote commemorative merchandise, invite volunteers, and collect sponsor interest.
