SUMMARY:National Captains Meeting - Sun Coast Table (Sarasota/Bradenton\, FL)
DESCRIPTION:Weekend Itinerary for Assembly of National Captains Meeting  \n11/8/24-11/10/24 \nSun Coast Table (Sarasota/Bradenton\, FL) \n This is the itinerary for those attending the in-person BOC National Assembly of Captains this coming November.  Regretfully\, it is not a National Zaf (we don’t have the bandwidth for those any longer)\, so it is only open to the National Bridge members\, Table Captains and their seconds\, and captives of attendees. \nFriday (11/8) Welcoming Soiree \nPlan to arrive on by early Friday (11/8) afternoon\, if possible\, for we will be gathering at 5pm (during Happy Hour) at a local venue for libations and victuals. \nThe Linger Lodge (7205 85th St Ct E. Bradenton\, FL 34202) sits beside the Braden River and has been around for almost eight decades.  It is known for its alarming array of taxidermized mammals and reptiles that adorn the inside walls\, seemingly staring at patrons from every angle. \nThe Linger Lodge is a restaurant and RV Park in Bradenton\, on the Northern bank of the Braden River.  The park dates back to 1945\, starting as a 100-acre fishing and canoeing campground. Ever since then\, the Linger Lodge has drawn visitors from all over with its Old Florida charm and cozy riverside atmosphere.  The restaurant was heavily renovated several years ago\, bringing it up to modern standards. \nThe locals know that the Linger Lodge is a great place to dine\, listen to live music and enjoy the river and bucolic views. Besides the main dining room\, there are two outside covered and screened decks provide picturesque water views of the winding Braden River. \nMenu specialties include Florida grouper\, alligator\, frog legs\, smoked meats and seafood\, jambalaya\, burgers\, and much more.  Each attendee will pay their own bill this evening. \n\nThe original Linger Lodge cabin (and its original owners\, the Parvins\, behind the counter serving patrons) in 1951. This structure burned down in the late 50’s and the restaurant was rebuilt\, expanded\, and modernized many times during the last 5 decades. \n 11/9/24 Assembly of National Captains – 0900-1200\, BYC \nThe 2024 in-person Captains Meeting will be held in the Commodore’s Room at the Bradenton Yacht Club (4307 13th St W\, Palmetto\, FL 34221). \nThe BYC is located on Snead Island and is on the north side of the Manatee River in the cut between Tera Ceia Bay and the Manatee. \nCoffee\, tea\, donuts\, crullers\, etc. will be provided. \nPlease plan to arrive no later than 0845 as we want the meeting to start promptly at 0900.  We will end no later than noon. \n11/9/24 Buccaneer Gathering and Cookout – 1300 \nImmediately following the Captain’s Meeting\, attendees are invited to gather at beautiful Jiggs Landing (6106 63rd St E\, Bradenton\, FL 34203) for a grill out. \nJiggs Landing was opened in 1944 as a fishing camp.  It sits on beautiful Ward Lake\, a fresh water preserve fed by the Braden River.  Jiggs is an historical landmark that was totally renovated by Manatee County in 2016.  We have rented a covered pavilion (far left in the above photo) with two charcoal grills and plan to serve appetizers\, hot dogs\, sausages\, side dishes\, and light desserts\, along with soft drinks. \nBringing alcohol into the park is forbidden\, but there is a concession within 150 feet of the pavilion that sells beer and wine. \nThe grill out will last 3-4 hours.  Saturday night is on your own. \nFarewell Brunch Buffett – Palm Aire Golf and Country Club – 1030 \nOur final social gathering of the weekend will be a Sunday morning brunch gathering at 1030 at the beautiful Palm Aire Golf and Country Club (5601 Country Club Way\, Sarasota 34243). \nA full breakfast buffet will greet you and tame your appetite\, while preparing you to travel back to your homes with no hunger pangs.  Below is a partial list of offerings: \nOmelette Station \nEggs Benedict Scrambled Eggs \nMade to order Waffles  \nSausage Applewood Smoked Bacon  \nBreakfast Potatoes  \nCorned Beef  \nHash Cakes Gulf Chilled Shrimp  \nCheese Blintzes Smoked Norwegian Salmon Bagels \nSoup du Jour \nSalad Bar \nChef Carving Station Chef’s  \nFish du Jour  \nChef’s Entrée \nHousemade Pastries & Desserts  \nBlueberry French Toast  \nAlso\, your first Bloody Mary or Mimosa is included (additional cocktails are on you). \nIf you are planning on attending the Assembly of National Captains meeting\, please email your intentions to John “The Crab” D’Alusio at jdalusio@gmail.com as soon as possible\, along with your need for berths. \nThe cost per person for all three Saturday and Sunday events is $65\, payable no later than 10/25.
