Like many of us, I spent my entire life following an academic calendar. First as a student, then as a teacher, and finally developing textbooks for use in schools. The fall season always carries a sense of new beginnings.
And while those of us who retired here in southwest Florida no longer follow that academic calendar, we still feel the sense of newness that comes every fall. People who spent their summers in more northern locations start to return. The weather changes from the tropical pattern of summer, with daily thunderstorms, high humidity, and triple digit temperatures, to the beautiful cool, dry air we all moved here to enjoy.
So let Platinum Point Yacht Club (PPYC) be the first to welcome you back from whatever adventures your summer held. Come see us at our yearly welcome back party, the PPYC Shrimp Boil. Come and catch up with old friends or take the chance to make some new acquaintances by talking to a member of the club. Ask a member what PPYC has brought to their Burnt Store Marina experience. Trust me, all members will be there and wearing red, it will be easy to spot us.
Please come to one of our upcoming Open House events. The events are an informal opportunity to learn what PPYC is all about. These events give you a chance to explore which PPYC activities might expand your experience in Burnt Store Marina. With the PPYC calendar filled from morning to night, you’re bound to find activities that appeal to you. But be prepared to hear the most common answer when we ask our members what PPYC brings to their lives – “Great comradery and fun!”
We hope to see you soon.
