“Ladies Day on the Lake” will
be held from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. on June 17. 2008 at Lighthouse Marina,
1925 Johnson’s Marina Road, Chapin,
SC. The Lake Murray Association (LMA), SC Department of
Natural Resources, Columbia Power Squadron and Columbia Power Sports will
host this popular annual event, which is open to all ladies 17 years of age
and older.
The purpose of
Ladies’ Day is to instruct women about all the elements of safe boating,
including how to drive and dock a powerboat safely, back a boat trailer into
the water and launch and retrieve a boat. Each participant will have the
opportunity to get into a DNR boat to take her turn operating it on the open
water and to dock it at the marina. This will all be done under the
competent and patient guidance of the DNR instructors. These are just some
of the activities for this fun-filled day! A course in the safe operation
of personal watercraft will be offered again this year by Columbia Power
Sports. A safety presentation will be conducted by Columbia Power Squadron.
Your DNR
instructors are experienced specialists in watercraft operation and safety.
They take the “mystery and frustration” out of boating and trailering. They
teach you how to handle a boat and trailer confidently so that your boating
excursions will be safe and enjoyable. LMA representatives will provide
lunch and refreshments and will assist in coordinating the day’s activities.
Past
participants have described this event as one of the most fun-filled and
pleasurable activities they have had on the lake. You can ask all of those
“dumb” questions that you hesitate to ask and no one will laugh at you. No
husbands or boyfriends are allowed – this day is for the ladies only.
This
event-packed day on beautiful Lake Murray is always a sellout (only 32
spaces are available), so it is not too early to reserve your spot. The
$35.00 fee is required in advance to hold your place. The fee covers your
lunch, drinks, and all other expenses for the day. Act now and sign up!
