About the event
Work focus will be in Chester prepping spars for their reunion with Gazela on May 2. This will likely include moving around a bunch of standing rigging. We need many hands to lift and carry rigging as well as help assemble the lower masts.
Free lunch alert!! Po-boys on home-made hoagie rolls will be provided by Mark for all who come out to help at Chester! Be sure to RSVP so we know how much food to bring.
