Antique Outboard Motor Club, Inc.
Hardy Pond River Cruise
June 7th, 2003

Due to threatening weather, only 4 boatloads of die-hard members showed up to run the cruise on the Muskegon River:  Rog & Blanche Dykehouse of Fruitport had Dick & Glenda VanRaalte of Grand Haven as passengers;  Mark & Elaine Suter of Williamsburg; Dan Jones & friend Cynthia from Milford; & Dick & Mona Gorz from White Cloud.

The Dykehouse, Suter & Gorz boats launched and were about to begin the cruise when Dan Jones made an appearance.  Another couple of moments and we would have not had the pleasure of their company.  Once underway, the weather cleared and we had a very pleasant uneventful cruise several miles up the Muskegon enjoying the beautiful unspoiled river scenery.

Upon our return, we all enjoyed a great picnic lunch at the Sandy Beach Park facilities right next to the launch ramp.  A super time was had by all and we hope to have a much bigger group next year.  Don't miss the opportunity next time.  You will be treated to a fun day!
