Events
There are many social activities throughout the year at
the Dolphin Club.
Our Friday-night potlucks are a great place to start. Just show up with something
to eat or drink, or start cooking in our galley and help to set tables and
clean up after the fun.

Every February we honor our life members (25+ years of
membership) at our
"Old-Timers' Crab Feed". Volunteers prepare fresh cracked crab, hot
pasta,
salad, freshly baked bread, and dessert, and then celebrate the achievements
of our most venerable associates, some of whom have belonged to the Dolphin
Club for more than 60 years.
Two or three times during the summer months, we hold potluck
barbeques
after our Twilight swims. The Club provides the grills, the buns, and the
libations; members provide everything else.
Mid-November brings our annual "Swim/Pilot Appreciation
Dinner". Toast our
most dedicated pilots and volunteers, find out who won the Polar Bear and
100-Mile competitions, and eat a hearty dinner prepared by our volunteer
kitchen crew.
We hold our holiday party the afternoon of our New Year's
Day Alcatraz Qualifier Swim, generally the Sunday before
Christmas. Bring a dish to share, and bring the kids. The
clubhouse is festively decorated and Santa will be making
an appearance.
The year can bring surprises, too: a springtime dinner-dance
and a Mardi Gras jambalaya fest are just two of the inventive
ways we've enjoyed ourselves in the past.
