Inter-Club Corn Roast at Telegraph Harbour Marina - Aug 31 to Sept 2. 

Organized by the Nanaimo Yacht Club, the Inter-Club Corn Roast at Telegraph Harbour Marina on Thetis Island is being held Aug 31 to Sep 2. This annual event has always been successful and enjoyed by attendees. The food is great, with games all weekend as well as the live entertainment by Andy McCormack on Saturday night.

NYC welcomes all club members to join in the festivities and hopefully meet new boaters. This could turn into lasting friendships.

This year's festivities will be as follows:

- Arrive Fri. Aug 31st. and leave Mon Sep 3rd.
- Costs are 20.00 per adult and 8.00 per child for the weekend

Please CALL Telegraph Harbour Marina any time after MAY 1st. at 1 (800) 246-6011 or 1-250-246-9511. Reservations can not be made via email. Please reserve early as the dock space fills up quickly.

As per last year if we fill up the dock space then Med mooring will be available.

Please email with boat name and names of attendees so we can keep track of numbers.
