Autumn in New York... Upstate That Is! Pay an Autumn Visit to New York State's Beautiful Finger Lakes Region And Plan to Attend the Joint Chapter Celebration 2010 An Evening of Dining and Dancing with Boating Friends Geneva, NY -- October 2nd

The Finger Lakes Chapter, ACBS is hosting the 2010 version of the Joint Chapter Celebration on Saturday, October 2nd at the Ramada Inn on Seneca Lake in centrally-located Geneva, NY. By coming together for an evening of learning, good camaraderie, finding new friends, renewing old friendships, and enjoying good food and dancing, we hope to strengthen ties among the nine ACBS chapters "headquartered" in New York State and to heighten awareness of antique and classic boating everywhere. That awareness translates into new memberships and stronger chapters at a time when younger members, particularly, are needed to sustain our interests in vintage boating. This will also be a great way to reminisce about the boating season just past and to talk about plans for 2011. Presidents of the other eight NYS chapters are being personally contacted by Finger Lakes Chapter President Janice Miller. They are being invited to attend this event with as large a contingent of their chapter members as they can muster. And they're also being invited to make presentations about their chapter activities, both past and planned.
