Reimagine home waters. Follow Ellery Thompson, Lawrence Malloy, Bill McCoy, and Admiral Hardy through the waters of eastern Long Island Sound, with Steve Jones as your witty and personable guide. It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to experience your home waters as another world, altogether.
NLMS 34th Annual Meeting, Lunch, & a Cruise! --on a boat, with Steve Jones, & cake. Sunday, November 5 Come for the meeting, then stay aboard for a memorable tour. We meet on the Jessica W, Cross Sound Ferry, 2 Ferry Street, New London, CT. Parking is available in the Cross Sound Ferry lot.
Join us for brief 20-minute Annual Meeting aboard the ferry prior to the trip -- from 12:30 to 12:50 -- just 20 minutes! All NLMS members are welcome to attend the meeting (only) without charge.
After the meeting ticket-holders sit back and relax on a high-speed ferry ride out to Block Island and back by 3:30 PM.
On our way out, Steve Jones will provide an eclectic narration encompassing Ellery Thompson, the Malloys, the Larchmont, and Admiral Hardy - to name just a few. Why go to Block Island? Because that's where all the bodies are, Steve says.
$50 for NLMS members, $65 others, $20 children ages 7-16. There'll be delicious box lunches (Montauk House Cafe), mojitos (Real McCoy Run and Katie Bradford), & cake (The Cake Lady). Register here online 24/7: brownpapertickets.com/event/3088408 or call 860-447-2501.
about Steve Jones: in addition to teaching at UCONN for 30+ years (literature, the environment, and aspects of the sea), Jones, a former USCG lighthouse keeper, has made films and published books about the region's maritime history.
We thank the Cross Sound Ferry for generously providing the boat.
