Cruise Status 10/15/13
Yes, there are still rooms available in most categories right now. Our Centennial group currently has 375 in it-not all are USPS members. Some have invited friends and family to join us as well. The more, the merrier! Here is the info about the cruise protection for you.

100 year stuff
D/Lt (P/C) Robert G. Scully N,
This sounds like a fine idea.
We should roll this out to the district if the bridge agrees.
Perhaps first we should have a suggested list of actions for each squadron to get this started. It looks like you are volunteering to be the lead person on this effort.
I would favor doing this during safe boating week as good visibility for the Power Squadron. Maybe also we should ask the boaters as they pass by to "show us your life jackets!"
Best regards,

Something to consider – For next years SBW theme we, D8, should think about working a plan to do a “Walk About” over a bridge. I am looking for help and guidance to make this happen. Would this be something the Planning Committee could evaluate?
A few years ago I looked at the PROLOG guide and saw a picture of a sign hanging from a bridge. A train is shown crossing over a body of water (See the reference). I thought how great it would be if I could get a bunch of folks together and walk the local bridge at noon with squadron members wearing PFDs. Someone could hold a banner or we could hang one from the bridge.
The idea did not go over well. I still think it’s a good idea. The basic issue was who wants to walk a bridge wearing a PFD in the middle of the day. One would get heat stroke. So you do it early in the am or later in the afternoon.
Next year we (USPS) will be 100. I think that we (D8) could get the various squadrons to jointly do a few bridge walks with at least 100 members at each bridge, which would be something. We could walk with the 100 flags and banners, if not PFDs wearing 100-year shirts or squadron unique shirts.
So I am hoping we can embrace the concept and explore various options and then pass along an initiative to D8 coming from the top down. Another option is to do something at the D8 July rendezvous with all present and walk the bridge next to Pier 66 at the Hyatt in Ft Lauderdale.

USPS Cent Shoe
Bob,
I've attached a sample matrix. While I understand your point in regards to Dockers, our shoes are both higher quality, more comfortable, and customizable. Retailing at $98 at stores across the country, we're the only company in the world that can customize a boat shoe in such a manner. In past deals that we have worked on with corporate/organizational/charity clients, we provide discounted pricing as long as we are guaranteed a minimum order of 40 pairs.
With a minimum of 40 pairs in place, we can provide our wholesale drop ship pricing of $60 + $9.95 S/H.
We can discuss how payments would work as well, but it is not typically common practice in the shoe industry to discount the product, which will be resold at an event like your, without a "bulk" order. It would be great to come up with a solution that will work for both of us.
If you plan to sell it on your retail site, then the pricing would be the same, but we would take care of fulfillment again and I would expect that you would markup the shoes to the $98 price point for profit.
Regards,
Jason
