Tom,

I just wanted to drop you a note to tell you how much we enjoyed our boat club experience this past summer.  We had never owned a boat and would certainly not have considered ourselves to be avid boaters.  The boat club was a perfect way to get to know the lake and learn a lot more about boating.  We had a summer filled with great fishing, plenty of tubing with the kids, and several evening cruises with friends.  The kids can’t stop talking about our adventures to Boy Scout Island where they swung on the rope swing one after the other.  We found that the lifestyle that the boat club offers made us feel like we were on vacation most of the summer.  It was much easier and more fun than we ever imagined.  It didn’t make us want to buy a boat – we saw how hard you, Jeff, and your team worked to keep them perfectly clean and ready for the next outing.  As long as the boat club is around, we want to be a part of it.   The signed contract for 2007 is already in the mail!  Thank you for making it easy for families like ours to enjoy the lake without the hassle and expense of owning a boat.

Mark, Patty, Sam, Emily, and John Gilk
