June 8-10 Baseball Cruise
Baseball Cruise – Save the Date!
In this time of cool winter weather what is better than to think of those warm days enjoying the green grass of a baseball field and the sound of the ball when it makes contact with the sweet spot on the bat. And of course you can’t forget that great smell of garlic that tops the wonderful garlic fries, not to mention the brats, beer, and whatever else you want including hotdogs!
Yep, it’s time to start thinking about the OYC baseball cruise. This year the baseball cruise will be held June 8-10 when the Giants play their local rival the Oakland A’s. As in past years we have purchased 40 game tickets for the Saturday afternoon game, and we have also reserved 10 berths at South Beach Harbor.
We always announce this cruise early. Remember, OYC can only reserve 10 berths and those will go to the first 10 boats to signup. We certainly welcome more participants than that, but if you are a later signup in order to get a berth you will need to personally call South Beach Harbor and ask to reserve one. South Beach will take private reservations starting 60 days in advance of your day of arrival – in this case starting on April 8th. I was advised by a harbor official that if you call it is better that you not identify yourself as part of the OYC cruise since your call could then get misrouted – just say you are calling to book an individual berth.
The signup sheet will be put out at the club on Friday, March 9. GO GIANTS!! (Sorry A’s fans...)
