OK folks.
Boat owners who have advertised that they will be at the Skeeter IBC swap meet already have interested buyers.

This event is the place to begin getting serious about being on the ice this winter.

See you there.

The Club extends it's appreciation to Lucke's Cantina in Williams Bay for allowing us to use their location as swap headquarters.     And thanks to those who contributed to the raffle: Mike Peters, Pete Barrett, Green Lake IYC, Ron Sherry from Composite Concepts, John Ritter from S & R Marine,  Bald Eagle Iceboaters (their award winning maple syrup is magnificent), Don Sanford with his new book about Madison lakes, Jane and Susie Pegel.
