Hey all! Hope it's warmer where ever you are. Bitter old man winter decided to make one last appearance before letting spring completely take over Pontiac. We went from 80 degrees and sunny on a Sunday to freezing temperatures and precip by the following Friday. Yuck. Sad thing is all the trees and shrubs are blooming - hopefully this little cold snap didn't do them all in.
Couple of things to tell you about!
We moved the main fish cleaning table to the east side of the building that houses the marina store. It's sort of a long story why we did it - if you'd like to hear it, stop in and ask. In a nutshell it has to do with a new regulation the USACE (the Corps of Engineers) passed banning submersible pumps, which is what we used to feed water to our fish cleaning table. Anyway, I think the new set-up is pretty neat. It might take a little getting used to, since the same table had been in the same place for about 25 years. When you use the new table, please keep in mind we will be extending a roof out over it for times of inclement weather. Just be patient with us. :)
Also, the Verne Cubbage Memorial Bass Tournament is coming up on April 9. Entries have already started to roll in. You may sign up right up until the morning of the tournament, but you can also pre-enter to guarantee your take-off position. Cost is $110 per boat, which includes $10 for the Big Bass pot.
Just Jackie's is currently open from 3 to 10 p.m. Fridays, 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. Saturdays, 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sundays. She will be open full time - 7 days per week - beginning Memorial weekend.
Also, don't forget to mark your calendars for the SIXTH ANNUAL BLESSING OF THE FLEET ON MAY 7. The blessing will take place around 2 p.m. Picnic and entertainment in the park starting around 4:30 p.m. We hope to see you ALL there.
And finally, stop by the dock to check out some of our new merchandise - the shelves are beginning to fill up!
