Ahoy, Mateys!
I am very happy and excited to say that the SS Minnow will be sailing again. This is the eighth summer for the Minnow and it would not be possible without Penny Stuart and lots of help from the businesses who benefit from it.
The free shuttle bus will run 10 weekends: Friday and Saturday evenings from 8:00 pm – 2:00 am starting June 29, 2018. The bus runs between Seventh Lake House and Daikers and will stop anywhere in between. Just give it a call and they will get there as soon as they can. It rarely is finished at 2:00, because they do their best to make sure everyone makes it home safe and sound at the end of the night.
Penny has been awesome at getting this going each summer, but I need you to help it continue. This bus not only benefits the bars and restaurants that it takes people to, it also benefits the motels and cottages who’s patrons are able to take advantage of the ride.
Every business that donates towards this will be listed on the flyers that are posted around town. Special notices will also be prominently displayed on the bus for patrons to see who makes this free service possible. Inlet will also advertise this bus in the local papers and businesses who donate will be listed in these ads. Inlet will talk about this on their website (inletny.com) and their Facebook page (Inlet, NY Information & Events). Inlet will post something about your business (information from your current ad - today’s special, tonight’s entertainment, etc.) on Facebook.
To support the SS Minnow, please send sponsorship to the Inlet Information Office payable to: Town of Inlet, PO Box 266, Inlet, NY 13360.
In addition to funding for this, we sometimes are also looking for volunteers to ride along with the driver. The bus will not be able to run if there is not a responsible “navigator” to answer the phone and run into the establishments to round up the passengers. If you or someone you know might be willing to help out a night or two this summer, please let me know. The tips are great!
If you have any questions, please call me at work 315-357-5501 or my cell 315-369-8830 or email me at info@inletny.com.
Thank you!
Adele
