As always, we celebrate all of those who participated to make our waterfront sparkle with holiday cheer! You can find pictures from around the marina here. Picking a winner was a tough decision. However, the following boats were ultimately selected:

• Winner: Seeking Wild

• Runner-up: Argo AKA "The Gingerbread Houseboat"

2) WAMU 88.5 Metro Connection Visits Captains Coffee: Mark from Metro Connection visited Captains Coffee this morning to interview participants as part of a series focused on traditions in DC communities. The segment will air next Friday at 1:00 PM and Sat at 7:00 AM.

3) Holiday Party to Collect Donations for Dockworkers: Slip holders will celebrate the holidays and community once more by gathering this Tuesday Dec 13, from 6-9PM on La Joyeuse for a special tradition: a potluck style party to collect donations for a holiday bonus for our hardworking marina staff. We are greatly appreciative of all of the amazing energy they put into making our marina such a wonderful place to live.
