BLISS MiniVous 2010

July 16,17 and 18th

Block Island, Rhode Island

updated 6/21/2010

The Rendezvous news:

The plan is to get together on Block Island again this year. Hellier Yachts is planning on bringing the 465 and the SP. Come take a look and maybe trade for one of those? Come talk with one of the Hellier's staff. Verne Ray, Victoria Burdick, John Zomermaand, Jan Friel, Mark McLeod, Karen Hollop are all planning on attending.

Everyone should start thinking now about plans for 2011. Talk it up and get a group of people together to organize a location and date. Then the agenda and if you are really ambitious door prizes. Please get in touch with either Al or Conrad if you have any suggestions or would like to help with either this year's mini-vous or next years planning.
