Air & Space Show / Child Abuse Prevention Fundraiser Cruise

Once again ECSA will hit the water to watch the exciting Melbourne Air Show, followed by lending kids a helping hand at the Child Abuse Prevention Task Force fundraiser dinner at Squid Lips.

The Melbourne Air & Space Show is scheduled for Saturday and Sunday, March 24-25. The official event is held at Melbourne International Airport, but we expect to have an opportunity to view the high-flying aircraft from an anchorage in the Indian River, roughly midway between the Eau Gallie and Melbourne causeways, in line with the airport runway. The show is scheduled to start at 11:30 a.m.  Click here for more information.

Following the air show, the ECSA and Squid Lips team up with the Child Abuse Prevention Task Force to lend a hand to the kids in our community.  From the Air Show anchorage, we sail a couple of miles north to Squid Lips, who will donate 4% of the revenue from food sales between 5 and 8 p.m. to CAPTF. The ECSA attempts to get as many boats as possible to attend, drawing attention to this very worthy cause. This is a wonderful cruise for children also, as there are several activities on the beach for them.  For more information, check out their web site *here*.

So grab some friends and a table, enjoy the delicious food, and help a deserving cause at the same time!  We can also discuss breakfast plans for those staying overnight on their vessels.
