Lounge Parties and Barbecues
2008 Schedule

We'll have parties throughout the year in the lounge, most on Saturday nights.

We'll have fun, talk sailing, and plan the next sail or party.
Take a look at the schedule. As always, we've included:

  • In July, our annual Pig Roast and Tropical Feast Luau to celebrate Aventura's birthday. We had over 400 people for the Tahitian Pig Roast last July.
  • October's wild Halloween Party. Come as you are or aren't that night, and be a part of our costume contest.
  • December's gala Holiday bash, on a boat parade night, with a visit from Santa!

We'll serve a buffet-style dinner at each of these parties, with plenty of drinks. Bring only a positive attitude and a willingness to have fun! You'll meet plenty of fellow sailors, and you will be welcome whether or not you are "in theme." These parties are a great place to exchange sea stories (or whatever), plan the next sail or cruise, and just relax, so come and join us!

We work hard at keeping the cost down. Please call the Office (949) 493-9493 and
tell us how many of you are coming no later than the Tuesday before each party.

Casino Night - Friday, March 28, 2008, 7PM
Lady Luck makes a stop at Club Aventura tonight,
and you'll want to be there!
Play blackjack, roulette, and craps Las Vegas-style
without losing a month's pay.
The only money you'll spend will be your admission price for the evening,
which will include plenty of "play" money for gaming,
and a lavish hot and cold finger food buffet, easily enough for dinner.
Just like Vegas, the drinks are free while you're gambling
or even while you're not!
So find a hot shooter, blow on the dice, and Come to Aventura!

Cinco de Mayo Party - Saturday, May 3, 2008, 7PM

Margaritaville Party - Cancelled
 
What sailor doesn't love the toes-in-the-sand "Coral Reefer" sound of Jimmy Buffett and his friends?
Tonight, the party features cheeseburgers with all the fixings -
I like mine with lettuce and tomatoes, Heinz 57 and french-fried potatoes!
Of course, there will be margaritas 
that frozen concoction that helps me hang on -

and the famous boat that washes up on the Aventura beach 
full of cold Corona beer!
The price includes all that and soft drinks, and a lot of your fellow Parrothead beach bums. Get tropical!

12th Annual Aventura Luau and Pig Roast
Cancelled

They'll be flying in from all over America again for Dana Point's biggest party, the annual Aventura Hog-Roast Luau!
The lounge can't hold the 400 of us (or the 220 lbs. of pork we'll roast
this day, so we take over the parking lot and surroundings!
Your admission price includes everything:
a dinner of mouth-watering slow-roasted pork or chicken,

with plenty of sides and fixings,
live music and dancing, soft drinks, beer and wine, 
and mai-tais and buffalo milk.
Reserve well ahead, 
but - If you go to only one party all year, make sure this is it!

Our zaniest party! 
Come  in costume, or come in a suit and tie 
and tell us you're a presidential candidate (pretty scary)!
You'll enjoy an array of hot and cold hors d'oeuvres,
along with beer, wine, soft drinks, and maybe even buffalo milk.

Plenty of monster mashing, and prize(s) for the best (or maybe worst) costumes!

Holiday Boat Parade Party - Saturday, December 13, 2008, 7 PM
A full buffet dinner with a range of food choices
with plenty of beer, wine, soft drinks, and maybe even reindeer milk 
(or buffalo milk if the reindeer are busy).
Regardless of the reindeer's status, count on the Dana Point holiday boat parade 
and, of course, A Visit From St. Nicholas!
Yes, the jolly old elf himself will be handing out gifts in the Aventura lounge.
This is a not-to-be-missed part of the harbor holiday season!
