OK folks, summer is upon us... so to kick off the summer right we're holding our June Meeting at Captain's Cove! :bounce3:
We'll start early enough to grab a table or two for all on the dock, overlooking the marina. There will be an "ARKSC" sign on the table so any newcomers will recognize us.
For those of you unfamiliar with Captain's Cove, it's a multipurpose facility; marina, boardwalk, shopping, harbor cruises, seafood dining, bar and music (late afternoons and evenings). In early afternoon it's a great place to sit in the sun (or shade) on the very large dock overlooking the marina, talk, and watch all boats (including tall sailing ships sometimes). Though they do serve beer at the outside tables, it's still very much a family atmosphere. Always lots of kids around.
We did this year before last, and it was a blast! Sun, water, refreshments and great Reef Tank discussion. Who could ask for anything more?

On the Google Map - coming from the Post Road (Rt 130 - Fairfield Ave), I usually turn onto Ellsworth Street, and turn left off of that onto Thurston Street. At the end of that turn right onto Harbor Avenue, then take an almost immediate left onto Yacht Street. Captain's Cove is through the big gate at the end of the street.
Hope to see you there. Will be good fun! :thumbsup:
