SUMMARY:QH Jazz on the Harbor and Flotilla!
DESCRIPTION:  \n⚓️ Jazz on the Harbor – Sunset Flotilla ⚓️ \nSettle in for a one-of-a-kind afternoon on the water where live jazz meets laid-back luxury. \nJoin us on Saturday Night\, September 19 from 5:30–7:30 PM for a floating concert experience featuring the Raisin Cake Orchestra\, performing from the dock of Chris and Jennifer Grippa at 1238 Windsor Harbor Dr.  Designed as a boat event\, members will gather by water (or meet up at the Grippa’s and hop on a boat)\, anchoring and rafting together to create a relaxed\, social atmosphere with incredible live music. \nThe Raisin Cake Orchestra delivers the lively sounds and rhythms of traditional and New Orleans jazz—think upbeat brass\, toe-tapping rhythms\, and classic melodies that carry beautifully across the water. The band will perform two 50-minute sets with a short intermission in between. \nWe’ve intentionally scheduled this as a late afternoon event\, so everyone can enjoy the music comfortably on the water—while enjoying the sunset\, great weather\, great company\, and great jazz. \nEvent Details: \n\n📍 Location: 1238 Windsor Harbor Dr. Dock of Chris & Jennifer Grippa (across from the 9th tee box\, formerly the 18th tee box)\n🗓️ Date & Time: Saturday\, September 19\, 2026 5:30–7:30 PM\n🚤 Arrival: By boat or by foot —guests may hop on a members boat or enjoy from Grippa’s backyard\n🎶 Music: Raisin Cake Orchestra – Traditional & New Orleans Jazz\n⏱️ Performance: Two 50-minute sets with a short break\n\nRegistration: \n\nBringing your own boat? Register below to secure your spot.\nThe only thing better than owning a boat is a “friend with a boat”.  Come by foot to the dock\, hop on a members boat (or watch from the dock)\, and join the fun!  Register below to secure your spot.\n\nTie up\, kick back\, and enjoy an evening of classic jazz on the water—yacht club style. 🎷 \n

SUMMARY:Annual QH Docktails & Sunset Lagoon Cruise
DESCRIPTION:Annual QH Sunset Lagoon Cruise\nJoin fellow Queen’s Harbour Yacht Club members for a relaxed evening of docktails\, delicious bites\, great company\, and a sunset cruise on the lagoon. \nDate: Monday\, June 8\nTime: 5:30 PM – 8:00 PM \nHow It Works\nIf you’re new to the Lagoon Cruise\, here’s what to expect! \nMembers will gather on the Country Club patio at 5:30 PM. Although the Club is closed on Mondays\, they have graciously allowed us to use the patio for pre-cruise docktails and socializing. \nPlease bring an appetizer and a favorite bottle of wine or other beverage to share. A food sign-up link has been distributed by Judy Ellis to those who have signed up thus far. \nWe encourage members with boats to host fellow members who do not have a boat available for the evening. After about an hour of socializing\, the boats will begin arriving to load passengers for the cruise. \nTo make the evening more fun and help everyone get to know one another\, passengers are assigned to boats by a random drawing. It’s a great opportunity to meet members you may not otherwise have the chance to spend time with. \nFollowing our sunset cruise\, we’ll return to the marina around 8:00 PM and gather back at the patio to collect belongings\, visit a little longer\, and help tidy up before heading home. \nWhether you’re a longtime member or attending for the first time\, we hope you’ll join us for a relaxed evening on the water with friends\, food\, and beautiful views of Queen’s Harbour. \nPlease RSVP to Judy Ellis at jtwo73@hotmail.com.
