Capt. Gary Lehto and First Mate Mark Skidmore invite you to celebrate the unofficial start of summer 2009 in grand style Memorial Day weekend in Two Harbors Catalina Island. Currently we have half of the entire Banning House booked and there are many campsites (tent camping up to an including permanent camp structures) available. There is no limit on how many can attend, but since all rooms and campsites sell out well before Memorial Day, if you have any interest in participating, you should plan on securing your lodging early.

Capt. Gary will be sailing his yacht over early an anchoring off Two Harbors. Others are taking the ferries with supplies (read: grog). Why so much grog? Fear of Pirates? No. Because on the deck of the Banning House is one of very few places in the world you can watch the sun come up over the ocean and from the same deck in the afternoon you can watch the sun go back down into the ocean. People travel from all over the world to witness this. But what if you are not into drinking and watching sunrises and sunsets? No problem as here is a short list of family friendly activities that are planned:

Beach Volleyball

Swimming and Snorkeling

Scuba diving (if you bring your own gear and/or are certified)

Ring Toss

Ocean Kayaking

Day Hiking

Spinnaker Flying

Over the Line

This website has much good info and photos about Two Harbors and you can sign up for periodic updates as we get closer for those that are interested in participating, bringing other friends, carpooling to the catch the ferries, etc. If you have any questions at all or need any additional info please go ahead and email.
