The live music has started! BJ Gariepy is playing tunes for the guests. So, even more reasons to come on over to the marina for a dinner and a visit. Tap your toe, or dance your heart out. We’d love to see you. 🎼💃🏽😎
Plans are to serve dinners until 9 p.m. (Last year the fish dinners ran out early, but this year more food was ordered, so all systems are a go. Bring your appetite!) 🐟👨🏻‍🍳🍴

The Fish Fry is on!!! Trout and whitefish dinners are now being served!! (And are getting rave reviews!)
The sun is out and the picnic tables are ready. Come by to say “Hello,” and enjoy your own plate dinner, with friends, by the water.
The Annual Fishing Tournament had 18 teams head out in the early morning fog today. Results will be shared in a later post.

A very fun day! Eight years ago, the boat was launched off the semi trailer at Pinquaming. That rig was too big to cross the bridge here. So, Bob brought it across Keweenaw Bay to the Dockside marina. It was a perfect day for boating!
(Andy T. was helping out as usual. We surely miss him.)
