Dear Members,
We still have rooms open (even on weekends) the end of June. And while July 4th is booked, the week of July
11th through the 17th Rooms 1 through 6 are open. (Since it is less than 30 days, you may have more than one guest room and you may have guests on weekends!) So call your family and friends and come to Mackinac.
Next week, dinners will return to Thursday night...cocktails at 6:00 and dinner at 7:00.
Thursday, June 25, Lamb
Thursday, July 2, Lobster
Thursday, July 9, Filet
Sunday brunch is also available with seatings at 11 a.m. and 12 p.m.
We will also host a Crab Boil on July 4th from 6 to 8 p.m. The cost will be $40.
Hope to see you soon.

I know in the newsletter survey quite a few people requested belts. We now have them in stock at the club along with dog collars and leashes and key chains featuring our burgee. The belts are only $18 for a D-Ring and $20 for a leather buckle. We also have canvas totes from the same company in red, green and off white. View photos!
We now have a full stock of fall sweatshirts starting at $30 including hooded, three quarter zip and full zip. We have great wind/rain jackets and vests by Oarsman and Musto. We also have some great white beach/bath towels with our logo.
We have 3 x 4 stickers for your car, boat, or home for $1.00. And we have larger boat decals for $30. They are completely water and weather resistant.
