  You're invited! Crew of 2 Trophy Party this Sunday

  Ahoy, SSYC Members! Get ready to celebrate the end of a great season at the Crew of 2 Trophy Party. Join us in the Islander Room this Sunday, September 21st, from 5:00 to 6:30 PM.

  We'll have a boatload of delicious appetizers from the downstairs kitchen, including potstickers, plus assorted beer and wine. The bar will also be open for mixed drinks (for purchase).

  The trophy presentation will kick off at 5:30 PM, where we will award the perpetual trophies for fastest elapsed time and corrected time to this year's winners, Steve Zeis and Gabrielle Bunn. The take-home trophies will also be presented.

  We'll also be distributing the commemorative Crew of 2 shirts, so don't miss out!

  Please RSVP by Friday so we can get an accurate head count for the appetizers. We can't wait to see you there!

  Join SSYC as we cruise to Ensenada, Mexico

  
  

  
  

  January 23rd, 2026 at 4:00 pm through Monday, January 26,2026 at 8:00 AM. We will be sailing on the Royal Caribbean ship, Navigator of the Seas.

  Beverage packages or other options - ask when you are making your reservations.

  More details will be coming about the trip in a follow up message.

  Many thanks to Penny Nelson for coordinating all the trip details

  Please register on Wild Apricot if you are joining us, but make sure you book with Royal Caribbean.

  Group name: SSYC

  Group Number: 1946855

  Phone number for group reservations: 1-800-465-3595

  Final payment due: November 9, 2025 (IMPORTANT!)

  Check-in date: December 9, 2025

  If anyone wants to join our group on the cruise, they should call the number above and provide the group number and name.  They will NOT get our same fare; they will need to pay the current fare offered by Royal.  Unlike when we went through the travel agent, who was able to hold a block of rooms at a certain price, we are booked directly with Royal.  I would encourage anyone who wants to go to book ASAP. If the price goes down, they can get a price reduction from Royal  before they pay their final payment.  They may not be able to book a cabin near us. Royal told me we grabbed the last 3.  However, travel agents routinely save blocks of rooms, so there is a chance they can get a cabin near us at a later date when the rooms are released. 

  Here's a way to save money on this cruise:  Royal is currently offering 30,000 bonus points if you sign up for their credit card (see their website for details).  That translates to $300 in onboard credit.  You just have to spend $1,000 on the card in the first 90 days.  You will have all of this year to continue to earn points towards your cruise after that.  I suggest you use the card to pay off your balance as well, as you earn 2X the points spent on Royal.

  I will continue throughout the year to keep you all updated on any information and developments as I become aware of them.
