Greetings and GOD BLESS!
Capital District Church of Christ is so excited for the upcoming Pontoon Boat BBQ @ 511 NY-9P, Saratoga Springs, NY 12866 (see map below).
7:30 am to 7:30 pm was listed, but realize that you may arrive any time : 11am -1pm is recommended especially if you are bringing a dish or supply. The boat goes out in rotations taking 10-15 of us out each time. So you'll have a chance to get on at any time.
Here are some tips to help you prep for a great time...
1) PRAY FOR GOOD WEATHER
Right now, Saturday looks pristine ... Praise God!
If there is a drastic change, we will make every effort to notify you via email and/or phone/text as early in the day as possible.
