The Club is open from February through December. Our Friday night buffet begins in February, with special expanded menus for Valentine's Day, St. Patrick's Day and other holidays. The annual Officer Installation and new member reception is held in April and the Club's "official" kick-off to the season comes with the May Flag Raising Ceremony and Commodore's Dinner Dance.

The Club adds Thursday lunch and Mom's Home Cookin' Thursday night dinner to the schedule in March.  The popular Sunday brunch begins in April, with special extras on Easter, Mother's Day, Father's Day and Memorial Day weekend. The Club expands its schedule to add Saturday lunch and dinner in May. The pool is open from June until Labor Day.

Many special events take place in the summer, including a Pig Roast, 4th of July Family Picnic, Crab and Beer Blast and two Oyster Roasts. The Fleet Captain plans several cruises for our boaters during the summer months. A particular favorite of the members is the weekend trip each year to Onancock.

Popular special activities include Cooking School and the Kayak & Paddle-Powered Craft Picnic.

Activities are scaled back to Thursday through Saturday in October, to Thursday and Friday only in November. Thursday lunch and dinner ends in December. Fall and winter events include the Labor Day Picnic, the Halloween and Thanksgiving Buffets and our annual Lobster Dinner. 

For our fishing members, the November Rockfish Tournament is a highlight of the year.

December features the Annual Meeting of the members, a Christmas Buffet and our New Year's Eve Dance.

Several times a year, our popular Club Night programs are scheduled. These special events include dinner and a guest speaker. Programs range from member cruise memories to Chesapeake Bay topics to historical presentations.
