President's Message Summer 2025

This has been the start of a wonderful year for the Lake Hopatcong Chapter, ACBS. It began with our April 27^th Spring Launch at the Beacon Restaurant on Lake Hopatcong. Next was our May 4^th Outboard Motor Workshop, presented by Jim Barrick. Our Chapter also staffed a booth at the May 17^th Lake Hopatcong Block Party, where we displayed Harry Gedicke’s 1958, 17 ft Chris-Craft, Custom Runabout, “Summer Breeze.”

Our Cruise Nights started Thursday, June 5^th, as the kick-off event for our Chapter’s 50^th Boat Show. The Cocktail Reception was Friday, June 6^th. The Boat Show was Saturday, June 7^th. Twenty-six boats were on display. Although there were occasional rain showers, it still proved to be an enjoyable day. We got to meet old friends and make some new ones. We enjoyed a fabulous buffet at our Saturday Awards Dinner, where we were once again entertained by Bob Rice’s awards presentation. A huge “Thank You” to VP/Boat Show Chair Mickey Schillizzi and all the volunteers who continue to make our Boat Show such a successful event. Congratulations to all the show winners!

Cruise Nights will continue throughout the summer. Please note that the July 3^rd cruise has been changed to July 16^th. Additional Cruise Nights are scheduled for August 7^th and August 28^th.

Our August Dinner is scheduled for August 13^th, at the Lake Hopatcong Yacht Club. We are close to finalizing our plans for our Chapter’s 50^th Commemorative Celebration. You will receive updates, as we get closer to this event.

Our Annual Meeting is scheduled for November 23^rd. It will be held at a familiar venue, Farmstead Golf and Country Club, Lafayette, NJ.

If you own a boat, please get out there and enjoy it. Take a friend with you and make it an even more enjoyable event. Stop at Main Lake Market and splurge with some ice-cream. Enjoy the summer!
