Change of Schedule to boys' 10-14 group

Passing this along from Shelley Wurst.........

Based on the great turnout yesterday (and the lack of turn-out at the Simsbury location last week), the desire from most of the attendees to keep our gatherings more local, and to take advantage of this awesome location before it closes for the season, we will be meeting for the next 2 Thursdays at Sandy Beach at Crystal Lake on rt 140 in Ellington. Locations for the final 2 Thursdays of the summer will be determined based on the desire of attendees.

*see schedule below*

We will meet for the next 2 Thursdays (8/8 & 8/15) in the shade on the beach near the center of the beach (pretty much directly across from where you drive into the parking lot). Fishing is not allowed on the beach, but can be accessed off the beach, although the boys decided that this is a better location for swimming than fishing, so my guess is most will leave their poles at home. 

There is a small fee at Sandy Beach, $5 for adults and $3 for kids 5 and over.

SCHEDULE CHANGE:

Thurs 8/8: Sandy Beach at Crystal Lake, Ellington

Thurs 8/15: Sandy Beach at Crystal Lake, Ellington

Thurs 8/22: TBD

Thurs 8/29: TBD

FOR THE FALL:

We will start by meeting on the 1st and 3rd Thursdays of the month at Connors Park in Somers, from 1-3pm, for casual hang-out time and anything the boys want to bring with them to do. We will schedule other activities and locations based on the interest of attendees. There's a lot of potential for this to grow if the interest is there, but this gives everyone something to rely on for planning.
