  A popular rendezvous with dinner and entertainment in town, and a potluck breakfast before heading home Sunday.  Come watch for frequently sighted grey whales and other wildlife from the dock.  Fun for the whole family.
  Organizer:  Bret and Joyce Phillips

  Email:  b.a.philliips@pobox.com

  Detailed Description:
  

  Langley is a cute little town just a 3-4 hour cruise north.  Explore the shops in town, check out the brewery, or watch for grey whales feeding in the shallows off of Seawall Park.  Be sure to check out the Langley Whale Center for the latest whale sightings!

  There are plenty of dinner options in town - ranging from the casual Pizzeria to the finer Prima Bistro.  Let me know by early May if you’d like to join us at Prima Bistro, so I can adjust the reservation.  Sunday morning, we’ll have a potluck breakfast on the pier by the boats, so bring something to share.

  The linear dock has already been reserved, so no need to contact the Port of South Whidbey.  Just be sure to register here with your boat information, and we’ll pass that along so the marina can build the moorage plan.
