Sun Aug 23, Summer Party on the Lake II, 1:30pm - 4:30pm Back by popular demand! Piccadilly is throwing a summer party on beautiful Lake Michigan! We have chartered a 36-foot, 24-passenger pontoon for Sunday, 8/23, 1:30 - 4:30 pm. The charter comes with a captain and first mate, coolers with ice, a Bluetooth sound system, an aqua mat and noodles for those who want to jump in the lake, and a long table for playing games, or putting food out. Of course there are the views of our beautiful skyline as well, and there is also a bathroom onboard :)
This is a BYOB and BYOF charter - bring your own beverage and bring your own food to share. We have charted the boat through https://tailgatethelake.com/ . The dock is located just North of the Chicago Yacht Club downtown - and please note that there is no parking right along the lakefront, the closest parking would be the Millennium Park Garage, you can see where the dock is on the "Dock Location" page of their website.
What happens if it rains? Not to worry, the boat has a canvas cover that can be put up. So what does all this fun cost?? Just $67/person and we have a maximum of 24 on the boat.
If you are interested in joining the party, please sign up on MeetUp and pay the $67 to Julian. You can pay by cash or a check at a meeting, mail me a check, or send the money to me via Zelle or Venmo. Let's get the party started! - Julian
