March 2020 Papoose Article

The Lake Mohawk Yacht Club held a game party at the home of Shirley and John Miller on February 15, 2020. This was a great way to get together and socialize while our boats are stored for the winter. Thanks to the Millers for hosting the event. .

The warmer weather is approaching. In April, we will be holding our Prep Signal Party and annual Clean Up. May will bring Mast Raising and more social events. Keep an eye out for dates to be announced by email, on the web-site and in the Papoose.
