THE FLYING DUTCHMAN 2017

For those who can’t take a Wednesday off, we have the perfect solution—sign up for the Flying Dutchman. In nautical lore, the Flying Dutchman is bad news as it was the name of a mythical ship doomed to sail the seas forever and never reach port. But from a Chamber Day perspective, the Dutchman is a good thing because it helps us raise more money for our Chamber and gets you a unique T-shirt.

Our Flying Dutchman is the answer for folks who can't get wet on May 3 but who want to say they “dove” the event. You won’t really go anywhere but you’ll get all the other benefits of Chamber Day participation. An “on-board” raffle will be conducted, just like on all the other boats, and you’ll get a T-shirt—but yours will be unique. (And every year the Dutchman logo is new and different.)

Cost for the Dutchman remains at $95. This includes your T-shirt, on-board raffle ticket, and 5 Chamber Day raffle tickets. It’s a great way to participate if you can’t get away for the day. Last year, we had 119 people “dive” the Dutchman each year and we're hoping that 2017 will be even better.

To sign up for the Dutchman, either go online to www.chamberday.org or call Chamber Day HQ at 310-652-4990.
