4th of July Boat Parade & Decorating Contest

The 4th of July is this weekend and that means it is time for the SSC boat parade and decorating contest! We will ask everyone who is participating to turn on their VHF radios to channel 69 starting at 12:30pm. We’ll have all parade participants drop into line just outside of the marina and motor up past the Redbud campground, pass by the dam, and along the Hawthorn campgrounds starting roughly at 1pm. If parade participants would like to raft up afterwards, then please use the radio to communicate the raft up location to others. 
Be sure to decorate your boat for the parade… we want to see red, white, and blue all over your boat as we celebrate America’s birthday! We will have judges located at the end of Dock 6 to decide which boat will claim the title as the most patriotic vessel as they pass by in the parade. The winner will be announced over the radio once the judges have voted and made their decision. 
No matter what you have planned for Independence Day, we hope everyone has a very safe and happy 4th of July weekend!
