Members of Red Sox Nation preparing to set sail on Caribbean Cruise

The Red Sox Nation had to cancel the playing of the annual Executive Course Golf Scramble due to Hurricane Irma. Although the competition part was cancelled, the dinner meeting was held. The club enjoyed a catered buffet bar-b-q and listened to speaker Ricky Craig from The Villages Golf Academy.

Although the club missed out on the camaraderie of a day on the golf course, The Red Sox Nation has another chance at enjoying the company of its members.

The club is sponsoring a fund raiser cruise in January. It is a seven-day Caribbean Cruise on the Norwegian Cruise Line.

The Epic will leave from Port Canaveral on Saturday, January 20, 2018.

All are welcome to join in for this fundraiser cruise.

For details, please contact Jeri Belknap (775-2296, butter4fly9@gmail.com) or Frank McCarthy (259-3032, frankmccarthy1@aol.com).
